About event

About an hour after the end of the funeral mass at Prague Castle, PD will be revealed between the windows of the ground-floor apartment in which the two sisters lived until their arrest. Ludmila SOUKUPOVÁ (*5 January 1912) and Marie KOVÁRNÍKOVÁ (*16 February 1914). They were undoubtedly among the most dedicated collaborators of ANTHROPOID. Rtm. J. Gabčík and rtm. J. Kubiš was given essential information about R. Heydrich's daily schedule and movements. František Šafařík personally delivered them to this place by the employee of the Prague Castle administration. During later interrogations by the Gestapo, the brave sisters did not reveal him.
They were murdered in KT Mauthausen on October 24, 1942.
