A Unique Historical Place for Europe & Social Events
Ostrava as a city had a major input to the industrial revolution at the end of the 19th century. Steel and coal industry contributed to all its neighbouring countries, including production of vehicles, railways, steam engines, and more. This city has preserved a unique museum where industrial revolution is kept alive, where you can feel how the world changed in the 19th century, and how the science developed from there. We will bring all attendees to these industrial museum, one and a very famous is the Vitkovice museum. You have to feel this part of history in Europe.
Also the social events alongside the conference will give access to various museums and guided tours, including Vitkovice museum and Tatra museum.
Myths and Legends
The wizzard (Slavic god Radegast) of the region is according to myths "Radegast" (. He loves the nature and woods and is very similar to Radagast which is the wizzard in the Tolkien books "The Hobbit" and "Lord of the Rings". There is a Radegast beer in the region and we will organise Radegast beer for the attendees. And Radegast was proclaimed as the Slavic god of hospitality" and therefore all are
welcome for tasting Radegast beer.
