Located in the vicinity of kilometer 25 of RJ-155 (after renovation, the highway had its mileage recounted; previously it was kilometer 50) and the Trunk Line of the former Rede Mineira de Viação, a railway that connects Angra dos Reis to the south of the state of Minas Gerais (of which it was one of the stations), it received this name in 1944 in honor of the Czech village that during the Second World War was the victim of a massacre of its entire population by the Nazis.

The explanation is historical: the residents of the original Lidice, in the Czech Republic, were suspected of harboring the assassins of Hitler's general, SS commander Reinhard Heydrich, who was killed in an assassination attempt on Prague in 1942. The Nazi leader, among other acts of revenge against the Czech civilian population, ordered the execution of all men over the age of 15 in the town, sent the women to the Ravensbruck concentration camp, and the children to reformatory schools. Not content with this, he changed the course of the river and filled in the town, which disappeared from the map.
