Forgotten Fates

Forgotten Fates

We invite you to visit the places where the history of our village was written. Through information panels you will learn about the stories of our ancestors and their forgotten fates...

This trail is managed by the association Zapomenuté osudy
History is not only years and events, but human stories, sometimes forgotten...

Knowing the fate of our ancestors leads to understanding the historical events that accompanied them in their lives. They had plans and ideas that often could not be realised. They often found themselves in difficult situations in life when they showed immeasurable heroism and bravery. At times they were persecuted for their stand in defence of their faith and patriotism. Many suffered and sacrificed the most precious thing, their own lives. It is therefore vitally important to remember their fates. We select from history those that we believe are relevant to our village of Ratiboř.

You can also view the location of all the panels directly on the map.cz website:
