Sokol Is the Most Beautiful Idea in the WorldThe new exhibition titled “Sokol Is the Most Beautiful Idea in the World” can be found from May 7 until the end of June in the public area of the connecting building between the terminals. The inspiration for its title came from a statement made by one of the participants at the recent program conference of the Czech Sokol Community, who used these words to capture the essence and significance of the Sokol movement.The exhibition not only commemorates the rich history of the Sokol organization, founded in 1862 as the oldest Czech organization established on democratic principles, but also focuses on its present-day form. Sokol has long represented an important pillar of civil society and a symbol of values that extend far beyond sport itself.The main projects of the Czech Sokol Community are based on five key values: sport, citizenship, community, personality, and kindness. These principles are reflected in the everyday activities of Sokol units across the Czech Republic and abroad.Václav Havel Airport Prague plays a symbolic role in this context. It is a place where Sokol members regularly meet with their international colleagues and from where they set out on further shared journeys. The exhibition therefore naturally fits into an environment that connects people, cultures, and traditions.When: from May 7 until the end of JuneWhere: in the connecting building between the terminals, in the public area Art at the Airport PoesiomatPoesiomat features 20 audio stories about famous Czech people and events.
