The Monday demonstrations in East Germany in 1989 and 1990 (German: Montagsdemonstrationen) were a series of peaceful political protests against the government of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) that took place every Monday evening.
Overview
In Leipzig the demonstrations began on 4 September 1989 after the weekly Friedensgebet (prayer for peace) in the Nikolaikirche with parson Christian Führer, and eventually filled the nearby downtown Karl Marx Square (today known again as Augustusplatz). Safe in the knowledge that the Lutheran Church supported their resistance, many dissatisfied East German citizens gathered in the court of the church, and non-violent demonstrations began in order to demand rights such as the freedom to travel to foreign countries and to elect a democratic government.
Informed by West German television and friends about the events, people in other East German cities began repeating the Leipzig demonstration, meeting at city squares on Monday evenings. A major turning point was the events in the West German Embassy of Prague, where thousands of East Germans had fled in September, living there in conditions reminiscent of the Third World. Hans-Dietrich Genscher had negotiated an agreement that allowed them to travel to the West, in trains that had to pass first through the GDR. Genscher's speech from the balcony was interrupted by a very emotional reaction to his announcement. When the trains passed Dresden's central station in early October, police forces had to stop people from trying to jump on the trains.
By 9 October 1989, just after the 40th anniversary celebrations of the GDR, what had begun as a few hundred gatherers at the Nikolaikirche had swelled to more than 70,000 (out of the city's population of 500,000), all united in peaceful opposition to the regime. The most famous chant became Wir sind das Volk! (We are the people!), reminding their leaders that a democratic republic has to be ruled by the people, not by an undemocratic party claiming to represent them.
Although some demonstrators were arrested, the threat of large-scale intervention by security forces never materialised as local leaders (SED party leader Helmut Hackenberg and Generalmajor Gerhard Straßenburg of the armed police), without precise orders from East Berlin and surprised by the unexpectedly high number of citizens, shied away from causing a possible massacre, ordering the retreat of their forces. Later, Egon Krenz claimed it was he who gave the order not to intervene.
The next week, in Leipzig on 16 October 1989, 120,000 showed up, with military units again being held on stand-by in the vicinity. The next week, the number more than doubled to 320,000. This pressure led to the fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989, marking the imminent fall of the socialist GDR regime.
The demonstrations eventually ended in March 1990, around the time of the first free multi-party elections on all-GDR level, for the Volkskammer parliament that paved the way to German reunification.
Years later, Monday demonstrations were also held in the 2000s as a protest against the Iraq war, against social security changes (Hartz IV), and since the fall of 2009 against the Stuttgart 21 project. In 2014, Monday demonstrations called Vigils for Peace, focusing especially on the U.S. Federal Reserve System, were held in Germany in response to the crisis in Ukraine.

ANNIVERSARY 2018
In 2018, the citizens of the Czech and Slovak Republics will mark
a date that invites them to celebrate the 100 year anniversary of
their common independent state – the Czechoslovak Republic.
During this past century together, the Czechs and Slovaks have
been witness to many great stories that will always hold a special
place in their history. It all began in 1918 when both nations’
shared desire for a sovereign state became a reality.
Newly elected TomášGarrigue Masaryk, a philosopher, educator and
a genuine state-maker,deserves the greatest credit
for the creation of a commonstate and is worthy of the
title president – liberator. Another important milestone that is
a great source of pride for Czechs and Slovaks is the so-called
Prague Spring of 1968 when, seeking liberation and escape from
dictatorship, the movement was forcibly ended by the invasion
and occupation of the Warsaw Pact troops.
And last but not least, it is 1993, when Czechoslovakia was, in
a cultured and peaceful way, divided into two new, completely
sovereign states within an integrating Europe. It was a peaceful
divorce appreciated by the entire civilized world.
The history continues, but the Czechs and Slovaks are still close.
In the best sense of the word, they can be proud of their time side
by side and boldly commemorate the stormy, joyful and even
tragic events today. Famous figures that, by their way of thinking,
moved Czechoslovakia forward represent an inspiration for the
21st century.

布拉格城堡 Prague Castle,聖維特教堂ST. Vitus Church-最美的藝術教堂.
布拉格城堡（捷克語: Pražský hrad）是位於捷克共和國布拉格的一座城堡，波希米亞國王、神聖羅馬帝國皇帝，以及捷克斯洛伐克和捷克共和國總統都在此辦公。這裡保存著波希米亞王國的王冠。布拉格城堡是世界上最大的古城堡，長570米，平均寬約130米。
聖維特教堂ST. Vitus Church-最美的藝術教堂
聖維特主教座堂（捷克語：Katedrála svatého Víta）是捷克共和國首都布拉格的一座天主教堂，羅馬天主教布拉格總教區的主教座堂，也是捷克最大、最重要的一座教堂。全名是聖維特、聖溫塞斯拉斯和聖阿達爾貝特主教座堂。教堂位於布拉格城堡內，是哥德式建築的精彩範例，其中有許多波希米亞國王的墳墓。
哥德式主教座堂 , 聖瓦茨拉夫禮拜堂
第一座座落於今日聖維特教堂的位置的教堂是一座早期羅馬式圓形建築，建於925年，由波希米亞公爵瓦茨拉夫一世建成。在1060年擴建為羅曼式教堂，1344年查理四世下令在原教堂的基礎上建造一座哥德式教堂，於20世紀初才修建完畢。20世紀教堂更換的彩色玻璃窗為阿爾豐斯·慕夏作品。
瓦茨拉夫選擇了聖維特做守護聖人的原因是他從亨利一世得到一件聖物 — 聖維特的手臂；也有可能是他想當地人較為容易改信基督教，故他選擇了名字較像斯拉夫人的聖人。漸漸，居住在布拉格城堡裏的基督徒人數增加，而異教徒人數減少，直到11世紀。
1060年，布拉格教區成立，斯皮季赫涅夫二世發現隨著信徒增加，原來的圓形建築太小，不能容納信眾，因此把它擴建為一座較大和較有代表性的巴西利卡式教堂。但是並未完全重建。大部分專家同意這是一個有3條通道的巴西利卡，有2個唱經樓和一對鐘樓與西耳堂連在一起。主教座堂的設計仿效神聖羅馬帝國的羅曼式建築，尤其是希爾德斯海姆修道院教堂和施派爾主教座堂。圓形建築的南部半圓屋頂被併入新教堂的東耳堂 因為有聖瓦茨拉夫墓，已經成為捷克諸侯們的主保聖人。主教官邸建在新教堂的南側，在12世紀中葉大為擴展。(資料摘自維基百科).

Places to visit while in Warsaw in Poland
Located at ul. Florianska 3 in eastern Warsaw, The Cathedral of St. Michael the Archangel and St. Florian a Catholic church and historical landmark that you need to visit while in this beautiful city.
Construction of this Gothic Revival architectural monument started in 1897 and it took 7 years to be completed.Gothic Revival architecture was to remain one of the most popular and long-lived of the Gothic Revival styles of architecture in Europe.
The Cathedral, designed by J. P. Dziekonski, a leading representative of Vistula Gothic, was built to serve the pastoral needs of the Catholic residents of Warsaw’s borough Praga located on the east bank of the Vistula River.
If you visit this cathedral you will find architectural elements such as pointed arches and steeply roofs and fancy carvings like lace ant lattice work were applied.
The 75-meter towers of St. Florian’s Cathedral dominate eastern Warsaw's Praga district. These towers highlight the cathedral’s role as a form of protest against the Russian invasion of Poland.
During the World War II St. Florian's was destroyed by the Germans but by the 1950s a reconstruction slowly began and St. Florian's was reopened in 1972. Today people name this church as Praga's cathedral.
Polish people are religious. During my visit, there were a lot of people praying together. There is a truth in this kind of architecture. While you are in Warsaw do no waste your time. Go and visit this cathedral. Pray for yourself. Pray for others!
Cathedral Tour of Poland
