VELVET REVOLUTION
This November is very important for the Czech Republic. It is commemorating 30 years since the Velvet Revolution, a revolution that has given us freedom and democracy.
In 1989, the driving force in the Moravian-Silesian Region was VSB – Technical University of Ostrava, which will commemorate the anniversary of 30 years of freedom together with other institutions in Masaryk Square in Ostrava. The university has specially cast keys, a symbol of the Velvet Revolution in the Czech Republic. It has prepared a special programme for Monday, 18 November, a discussion with witnesses and a lecture on architecture. The Revoluční Sokolská 33 (Revolutionary Sokolská 33) magazine was also created as part of the celebrations, in which our students participated.
