The opening will take place on 5 November at 5.30 pm in front of the Rector’s Office building at VSB – Technical University of Ostrava.

This exhibition marks the anniversary of 17 November – the Day of the Struggle for Freedom and Democracy and International Students’ Day. This day commemorates the courage of several generations who endured brutal repression, oppression and the lack of freedom, whilst also highlighting the need to continually protect and nurture freedom and democracy.
