Slovenian language education

Charles University in Prague and Masaryk University in Brno both have a chair in the Slovenian language. In 2005, a chair in the Czech language was established at the Department of Slavistics at the Faculty of Arts [Filozofska fakulteta} of the University of Ljubljana.

In 2014 we are celebrating another important anniversary – 100 years since the establishment of the Slovene Lectorate at Charles University in Prague.

Slovenes in the Czech Republic

There are two Slovene associations working in the Czech Republic. One has headquarters in Brno, the other one in Beroun near Prague.

Several young people from Slovenia have studied at the eminent Film and TV School of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague, or FAMU, one of the oldest film schools in the world, located in Prague. Several of the FAMU alumni from Slovenia got international acclaim (e.g. Janez Burger, Janja Glogovac, Olmo Omerzu). Some pupeteers studied at the Department of Alternative and Puppet Theatre of the DAMU (e.g. Silvan Omerzu or Matija Solce with his PhD studies).
