I plan to visit Prague later this year and would very like to know if the place where the Czech partisans attempted to kill Heydrich is much as it was back in WW2 ?
I shall also be visiting Vienna and Budapest. Does anyone know of any good military museums in any of these three cities ?

Vienna has or at least had a good military museum that covered that cities/countries (Austria) involvment in war. Nice long hallway with units colours that date to before the Napoleanic wars. Arch Duke Ferdinand's car that he was assisinated in etc. It was really well laid out.
Only wing that was not open was the WWII wing, but mind you my visit was in '93.

Only he is lost who gives himself up as lost.
There's a Heydrich museum at the Cathedral of Cyril and Methodus and it's in the actual crypt where the final gunfight took place.
There are also some other museums you might find interesting...
