1948 Czechoslovak coup d'état

Beneš's Death

Friday Sep 3, 1948
Sezimovo Ústí, Czechia (Then Czechoslovakia)

Beneš died in September, bringing a symbolic close to the sequence of events, and was buried before an enormous and silent throng come to mourn the passing of a popular leader and of the democracy he had come to represent.
