Prachatičtí ostrostřelci

Description

The exhibition "Prachatičtí ostrostřelci" (May 29 - October 4, 2026) explores the little-known history of the sharpshooters' association in Prachatice. In 2026, we commemorate the 210th anniversary of the founding of the association, which was an integral part of life in Prachatice for a whole century. The exhibition will not only present a collection of sharpshooters' targets from the early days of the association but also a number of items whose connection to the sharpshooters has gradually faded from our awareness. On display will be sharpshooters' banners from 1859, 1872, and 1907, parts of equipment and armament, as well as various commemorative items. A catalog is being prepared for the exhibition, which will expand the only publication by Paul Messner on this topic with new information, including those related to history after 1926.
