Government to decide soon on Prague-Bubny Holocaust memorial

The redevelopment of Prague-Bubny railway station, a key Holocaust site where 50,000 Jews were deported during WWII, is set to be discussed by the government. Pavlína Šulcová, director of the newly named Center for Memory and Dialogue Bubny (CPDB), expects a decision in the coming weeks. The project, estimated at CZK 300 million and backed by the Ministry of Culture, aims to create a dignified Holocaust memorial while promoting education and dialogue. Šulcová emphasized the importance of new approaches to Holocaust remembrance, including innovative public events to engage broader audiences.
