Archaeological research on Letná Hill uncovered a forgotten 1950s labour camp linked to Prague’s Stalin monument. Preserved architecture and artefacts reveal daily life of workers, driven less by physical violence than by ideological pressure and social consequences. Site thus sheds new light on forced labour and material culture in communist Czechoslovakia.
