"July 6, 2015 is the significant 600-year anniversary of the burning of Jan Hus in Constance. To commemorate this anniversary and to honor the remembrance of Hus, the National Museum has organized a special exhibition entitled "Jan Hus in the National Museum Collections (1415-2015). Master Jan Hus and his Legacy" which will be presented in the new National Museum building from June 4 to July 12 2015. The main purpose of this exhibition is, through selected objects, to draw attention not only to the significance of Hus's personality but also to commemorate his legacy, predominantly in his religious and moral teachings. The exhibition catalog aims not only to present period items associated with the life and activities of Jan Hus, but also to present unique objects from the National Museum collections, some of which will be exhibited for the first time."--Page 132.
