Pittsburgh Agreement to go on display in Prague

The Pittsburgh Agreement, the treaty which founded an independent Czechoslovakia in 1918, is to go on display in Prague. The document, which was signed by the country’s first president Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, will be displayed in the Czech Senate in October. To mark an independent Czechoslovakia’s 90th anniversary, the document will be loaned from the Pittsburgh Museum of American History. It is set to be the main attraction at ‘The Road to Independence’ - an exhibition charting the building of the Czechoslovak state from 1916 to 1920.
