Summary/Abstract: The publication presents an introductory study summarizing the history of the Ďáblice Cemetery in Prague since its inception in 1912. Special attention is paid to the burial of opponents and victims of the Nazi occupation regime and the communist dictatorship in a common burial ground at the northern wall of the cemetery in 1943–1961. The publication contains a list of the buried, a reconstruction of possible numbering of the shafts, or an analysis of the current memorial area above the burial ground from the mid-1990s.
