Žižka's sword returns to Czechia for 600th anniversary commemoration in Bethlehem Chapel

A ceremony in Prague's Bethlehem Chapel marks the 600th anniversary of Jan Žižka's death, featuring the return of a sword believed to be his, on display for the first time in nearly 400 years. The event began with a religious service, followed by the unveiling of the sword from Sweden’s royal collection. The sword, part of an exhibition open until Sunday evening, has sparked debate among experts over its authenticity. The program also includes the premiere of a film imagining a meeting between Žižka and Komenský, alongside lectures from historians.
