The Embassy of the Czech Republic in Belgrade ceremonially marked St. Wenceslaus Day, the patron saint of the Czech Republic, on September 25. St. Wenceslaus (Václav) was a 10th-century Duke of Bohemia, known for his just rule and dedication to Christian values, and was killed in 935
His day is traditionally celebrated on September 28 and is regarded as a symbol of Czech statehood and cultural identity. This date is symbolically linked with the Czech National Day, which is officially observed on October 28 to commemorate the proclamation of independent Czechoslovakia in 1918.
At a reception at the Czech Embassy, Jan Bondy, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Czech Republic to Serbia, welcomed guests from cultural and public life as well as the diplomatic corps.
