Slavic Heritage Festival DETAILS
From the organizer:
Honoring St. Wenceslas (Svatý Václav), the patron saint of the Czech Republic and beer. Svatý Václav ruled as the Duke of Bohemia, at a young age from 921 to 935 AD. He worked endlessly to unite the Czech lands and was notoriously martyred by his pagan brother on September 28, which is now a national holiday in Wenceslas’ honor. Svaty Vaclav is best known to English speakers from the song “Good King Wenceslas”.
