Velmi zvláštní a smutné místo v centru Prahy, které málo kdo zná. Nenápadnou budovu na pražských Vinohradech užívalo v letech 1939 - 1945 Gestapo jako tajné vezení a porodní kliniku pro tehotné. Po porodu byly deti matkám odebrány, zabity nebo poslány s nemeckými jmény na výchovu do nacistických rodin do Nemecka. Matky byly vetšinou poslány do koncentracního tábora. Tento osud potkal mimo jiné i šest žen z vyhlazených Lidic. V budove je dnes internát a hotel.
========================================
Very special and sad place in the center of Prague, almost unknown by public. Inconspicuous building in Prague's Vinohrady was used in the years 1939 - 1945 as a secret Gestapo prison and obstetric clinic for pregnant women. After the birth the new born children were taken, killed or sent for education to Nazi families in Germany. Mothers were usually sent to a concentration camp. This was also fate of six women from Lidice. The building is now used for boarding of students and as a hotel.
