It takes its name from the great Czech religious reformer Jan Hus, who was burned at the stake in 1415 and influenced the later Protestant movement. When the church was established in the 1870s, it was one of the hubs of a large Czech community that in those days totalled thirty or forty thousand people. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/jan_hus_church.jpg?timestamp=1591358747 The Jan Hus Church in New York – a remnant of the Upper East Side’s Czech past https://english.radio.cz/jan-hus-church-new-york-a-remnant-upper-east-sides-czech-past-8592055 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
