Feast of St. Wenceslas
It is celebrated annually, on September 28, and its official name is Statehood Day. The locals themselves prefer to celebrate it as the Day of St. Wenceslas, who is the heavenly patron of the Czech Republic. Therefore, without fail, beautiful, solemn masses are held in numerous churches, festivities are organized in squares and in parks.
It was Saint Wenceslas who initiated the construction of a rotunda church in Prague, on the site of which the St. Vitus Cathedral is now located, which is one of the main attractions of the Czech capital.
This religious building contains regalia that were used in coronation ceremonies in medieval Bohemia. Tourists entering the cathedral are amazed by the impressive panorama of the cathedral in the Gothic and Neo-Gothic style, lancet windows decorated with incomparable stained-glass windows. The space of the temple is conventionally divided into two spheres, heavenly and earthly, allowing everyone who enters to feel the touch of the lofty, divine and human at the same time.
