Bulovka Hospital
Appearance
Bulovka Hospital (Template:Lang-cs) is a large teaching hospital complex in Prague, situated on a hillock adjoining the White Rock in Prague 8 - Libeň near the defunct homestead of Bulovka. The most striking building in the complex is the hospital's famous neo-Rococo building called Vychovatelna.
Notable deaths
In 1942, Reinhard Heydrich, one of the main architects of the Holocaust and the acting Reichsprotektor of the Nazi Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, was treated at Bulovka Hospital after being wounded nearby in an assassination attempt during Operation Anthropoid. His wounds became infected, and he died at the hospital eight days later.[1]
