Akord Wins Significant Award

The Union for the Development of the

Moravian-Silesian Region annually awards

significant institutions prizes for their

contributions to the region. One of the

awarded institutions in 2018 was Akord,

the House of Culture in Ostrava-Zábřeh.

The oldest cultural house in Ostrava

celebrates 60th anniversary in 2019. It

is a modern centre of culture in Ostrava

which attracts up to 250,000 visitors

annually. Plays, performances, concerts,

programmes for children and seniors,

open air events, active sport courses and

education, and dance classes represent

a small sample of the rich programme

which also includes organizing events,

congresses, and balls for business partners

as well as providing room for training,

graduation ceremonies, and academies.

The Akord House of Culture also runs

a restaurant and a hotel.

Akord is the lighthouse of culture and

social events in the region of Ostrava; it

undoubtedly deserves the award for their

contributions to the cultural development

of the region.
