PHOTOGALLERY: In Luhačovice they said goodbye to winter by bringing out the Morena

Author of the article: Kateřina Nosková | Last update: March 18, 2024

Folklorists walked from the post office to the Villa Najada, to the interest of residents and spa guests. From the bridge at Ottovka they symbolically threw a lit figure of Morena representing winter into the river flowing through Luhačovice. Songs sung about how no one was sorry to say goodbye to winter - that is, to Morena - could be replaced by songs about the green tree, which replaced the figure of Morena at the head of the procession as a symbol of the beginning of spring.

Luhačovice wants to protect its historical centre

The town of Luhačovice is planning a building closure in the area of the historic core. The measure is intended to temporarily protect architecturally valuable sites from unregulated construction until the new zoning plan comes into force. The building closure is to apply to the spa colonnade or Jurkovič Avenue towards the Luhačovice dam. In other locations, on the other hand, the city is ready to support new construction.
