The exhibition of the Antikomplex association from Prague tells the story of seven houses in the Czech border region. On display are photographs of the houses with their inhabitants then and now, as well as many objects.
Thousands of Czechs live today in houses whose German owners and residents were expelled after the Second World War. Some Czech and German families connected by such houses have successfully tried to establish contact with each other. Where it was possible to overcome insecurity, inhibitions and fears, the residents were able to meet each other without prejudice and not infrequently friendships developed.
