Collegium PF & Concert for Heroes

The heroism and courage of people who, in the past, fought for our freedom and democracy are commemorated in the traditional November financial collection on Veterans Day.

This concert at St. Bartholomew’s Cathedral is also dedicated to those who fought for freedom. The Pilsen Philharmonic organizes it as a benefit concert with the support of the Pilsen Diocese for Post Bellum and the Memory of the Nation collection. It will be attended by prominent personalities from cultural and political life, as well as war veterans, resistance fighters, and other heroes to whom the concert is dedicated.
