ride of the king 2025

Can be heard in the streets of Vlčnov for centuries when the young king and his entourage ride through the village. Where does this ancient tradition come from? Its origin is shrouded in mystery and entwined with legends. Some historians trace its roots to distant times when the defeated Hungarian King Matthias Corvinus, disguised in women's clothing, attempted to flee through Moravia. Others believe it is a remnant of pagan rituals celebrating young men's transition into adulthood.

The first written record of the Ride of the Kings in Vlčnov dates back to 1808, even though oral tradition suggests the ceremony took place much earlier. What is certain, however, is that the tradition has been preserved through generations and continues uninterrupted every year. Nowadays, it is one of the most significant folk traditions not only in the Slovácko region but in the entire Czech Republic.

 

Traditionally, the whole event was technically supported by ROsound.
