From the Old Town library to schools, the House of National Minorities, and the registered seat of Plast: how Ukrainian schooling and civic life develop in Prague.
Ukrainian heritage in Prague is an enduring presence seen in weekend schools, scouting clubs, and cultural initiatives. This trail presents today’s hubs: the library, schools, the House of National Minorities and the Plast address.
Most stops in central Prague are within comfortable walking distance. The final stop (the registered seat of Plast on Fingerova street) is in Stodůlky, Prague 5 (per dossier R0081), away from the centre.
The Slavonic Library (in the Klementinum since 1929) holds Ukrainian émigré books, periodicals and manuscripts, as well as the T-DRAH (Drahomanov Institute) and T-UHA (UHA) collections (KL04, KL05; R0100).

The building of ZŠ Brána jazyků (founded by Praha 1). The Ukrainian Initiative in Czechia reported that the Erudyt school has held classes here since September 2018; the current use agreement and the specific rooms have not been verified.

Ukrainian School No. 1 gives the address Štěpánská 568/10 on its own contact page. This is the school’s self-presentation: the legal operator and the years of use of the premises must be verified separately.

Prague’s civic and cultural centre for national minorities (opened 2007). The Ukrainian Initiative in Czechia (R0059) and SUPU (R0060) have office or registered contacts here; the journal Porohy is published by the Ukrainian Initiative, not by the centre (R0093).
House of National Minorities (Vocelova 602/3)

Registered seat of Plast – ukrajinská skautská organizace v ČR, z.s. (R0049; ID 19929307). The organisation’s link to the address is documented (registered 9 Dec 2023), but not that Plast meetings take place here.
