The Bethlehem light is one of the modern symbols of Christmas, which was created in 1986 in Austria. From Bethlehem, where, according to Kesansk tradition, Jesus Christ was born, the light is transported by air to Vdna, where the Rakuten scouts presented it to scout delegates from the cells of Europe last Saturday. He was subsequently brought to the Brno Cathedral and on Sundays he was presented to the bishop in the Brno Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul on Petrov. According to the organizer, hundreds of people are involved in the spread across the country.
In Prague today, people can drink for a splurge at any of the 17 stops of the two historic trams. At each stop, the Bethlehem light will be available for approximately 15 to 20 minutes. The first stop will be Smchovsk ndra from 1:21 p.m., respectively Ndra Brank from 1:33 p.m., the last Krlovka and Erven Vrch until 6:50 p.m., the Prask transport company said. People can find the events on the website betlemskesvetlo.cz.
At 2:00 p.m., tell the scouts to burn the Bethlehem light and descend the metropolis in front of the New Town Hall building on Marinska nmst. The flame will be lit in its vestibule until January 1, and it will also be available to the public.
Clem action is to go together with the flame of love of peace, tranquility and peace. The Bethlehem light is for you a symbol of hope, a light that overcomes darkness. For the first time in 1986, Plamenk traveled by plane to Linz, where he became part of an international gathering of Austrian radio and television to help disabled children.
The light of Bethlehem reached the church after the fall of communism, and in December 1989, in the hands of exiled scouts, it traveled under the statue of St. Wenceslaus in Prague. In 1990, the scouts became familiar with the idea of the Bethlehem light, and in the autumn of that year they started preparing the Czech version.
