World War II

29.10.2013

In Europe and Asia, there quite a few WWII memorials and places reminding us of the battles and other important points of the war. The disembarkation beaches in Normandy are among the places which are worth seeing not only from the ground but also from the air. It takes about 5 hours to get there from Pribram in Czech Republic.
