    Prof. František Rieger and his air raid siren system

  • Original language description

    The aim of the paper is to present a unique system of Prague air raid siren control system, which was designed and constructed by František Rieger (1904-1986) in the second half of the 1930s. It will briefly describe not only the personality of the author of this system but also focus mainly on the political and security circumstances of its creation in the broader context of the increased need to protect the civilian population in Czechoslovakia during this period. Based on available materials, it will attempt to reconstruct the technical aspect of the warning system, its trials and its application in the run-up to the outbreak of the Second World War.
