Item Description
1924 Czechoclovakia Poster Stamp Regional Sokol Slet Gymnastics Society Trocnov In České Budějovice June MNH Sokol, (Czech: “Hawk,” or “Falcon”), gymnastic society, originating in Prague in 1862 to develop strength, litheness, alertness, and courage. Originally patterned after the German turnverein, the Sokol traditionally emphasized mass calisthenics as a means of promoting communal spirit and physical fitness. České Budějovice is the capital city of South Bohemia in the southern Czech Republic. Surrounded by arcaded houses, the grand Přemysl Otakar II Square is home to the baroque Samson’s Fountain and the Town Hall with 3 spires. The Gothic-Renaissance Black Tower has views of the old town and Klet’ Mountain, southwest. Rebuilt many times, the nearby Church of St. Nicholas has baroque chapels and 3 naves. Trocnov is a birthplace of the Hussite military leader, Jan Žižka. It is located 16 km southwest to České Budějovice. ― GoogleSeller Information
