With the perspective of the 2016 events, the author goes back to similar, yet completely different celebrations of the 600th anniversary of the death of Charles IV in 1978, to the period of normalisation in the Czech Republic. Based on archival documents, historical press, and exhibition catalogues, she uncovers the political backstage of the similarly spectacular exhibitions which took place at Prague Castle, Nuremberg, and Cologne.
