Jan Hus, Reformer - Heretical Views Sound Modern
Jan Hus, religious reformer, statue at Terezin, Theresienstadt transit camp, CZ
Here is Jan Hus, a religious statue in an unlikely place: Terezin, or Theresienstadt -- the Nazi-created ghetto / concentration camp-that was staged for purposes of Red Cross inspections as an ideal settlement place for Jews. In reality, it was a holding pen, a way station to Auschwitz-Birkenau.
Jan Hus: his more famous statue is in Prague Square, see https:://www.prague.cz/jan-hus-monument, Jan Hus: Why here? Unanswered. Is it the theme of martyrdom, persecution? See photos of Terezin at http://www.scrapbookpages.com/CzechRepublic/Theresienstadt/TheresienstadtGhetto/GhettoTour/Tour02.html
Jan Hus: Any who challenged the driven compulsory church teaching was a heretic. Hus was burned.
