Taste Of Traditional South Moravian Culture
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- In this video I am in South Moravia (Rakvice) which is a place known for its wine production. There will be a big annual traditional celebration which dates back many years which is called Hody, people will be dressed up in a Kroj which is a traditional outfit and each village has a different colour costume. People will be marching through the village singing and dancing. A band will be playing traditional music called Dechovka. The main organizer and arranger of Hody is a selected young boy called první stárek (the first stárek - literally the first "old one"). He and a group of young friends (somewhere they are called stáreks - Czech plural: stárci; or they can be called chasa) are responsible for the organization and smooth running of the event. Each stárek (or member of chasa) also has a girl partner, usually called starka or stárka. The boys and girls wears a traditional folk costume, which differs widely from region to region. At the beginning of Hody, a mayor of the village or town should pass symbolically the rule over to the first stárek.
So much respect for you bro! I was born in Czech and moved to Canada when I was a young lad. Anyhow you do a fantastic job brother its lovely to see. Thank you.

@@rov4950 ye, stay where u are from
@@heledraku Calm down
You are right !! I am from Morava and now living in London. I wonder, if you live in Canada, why is your YT name say London ?
Tak tohle video je naprostý unikat!!! Dobře jsi zdokumentovat ty hody na jižní Moravě! 👍👍👍
A já si teď sedím ve vinohradu a užívám videa ale zase za chvíli hurá do práce
treba skúsiť hody aj na slovensku,alebo pravú zabíjačku,máme aj vinikajúce vínko,aj pálené,slivovička,marhulovica,hruškovica,destiláty 52%,to je liek
Even though I am a bohemian, this makes my heart warm.. these traditions are so lovely and I am proud that they are still going on.. boys looking like "Honza" from czech fairy tales and beautiful slavic girls in awesome krojich looking like princesses
Even though I am a Silesian, this makes my heart warm too :D But I am from Ostrava which is one of the bigger city here, and I must say I am sad that we don't have such a rich traditions here at northeast. Nice video again keep goin André we love you (I could write in czech but I want to practice english a bit :D)
@@reimusscz884 You perhaps would have if history after 1945 turned bit different. Anyhow you really don't have any real "havířské" traditions? Some old from 19th century and so, to my knowledge those people who went down below ground had some and their own subculture. But I
@@MrToradragon Of course we have our "havířské tradice", but one comment here is too short to describe it all. As mining declines here these traditions disapearing quickly. For example dialect called "po našimu" is dissapearing too (I think it was mix of czech/polish/Silesian lang. Ussualy only elders used it here). Luckily I experienced a time when my grandparents spoke it, and because of that I can speak fluent Polish now. Nowadays in my opinion traditions aren't really big thing here, there are still somethink called "havířské slavnosti" which is few day festival of czech pop/rock bands. Or pálení čarodějnic/ srpnová noc... But it's only about drinking and listening new music in civil clothing so not huge a tradition for me. By the way my grandpa was a "havíř" which I am proud of because it was extremly hard job. Here near Ostrava it's city next to the other city (Karviná, Havířov, Orlová, Ostrava, Bohumín, etc...) so there are not much lonely villages remaining. Everything is so urbanised. And this is a fact people here are not as satisfied and happy like somewhere else and it can be seen on them. For example I was in Brno and few villages near a week ago and whole atmosphere is different, people are more relaxed, everything is slower then here, more smiles on faces, and everyone looks after himself. But here are some random events for example "výročí osvobození Ostravy" and it was pretty nice to see. It was a reconstruction of the fighting for Ostrava during the Second World War. There was 200+ soilders, tanks, even historical airplanes in air, shots. Amazing atmoshpere.
To máš pravdu
One of the most typical traditions we have in Moravia. Glad you were able to see it :)
not gonna lie Im so proud of my czech country. I didnt expect everyone will be so kind to you.
I expected a lot of racist people i guess They are just racist heroes on internet
@@johnnymonsterrrr people in South Moravia are really kind and generous, in every village they will friendly welcome you, and André is too really polite :)
Im South Moravian from nearby where this video is taken at. Why we shouldn't be nice to him?? We love when there are foreign people and WE LOVE to show them, share, invite them. Especially when we see they want to know what we are doing and don't know the traditions. Food, drinks, taking them to dance and try, letting them take pictures with us, offering them to join a dinner at someone's house even when we don't know them much where they will be with bunch of people in traditional folclore dress. Then family serving them all the food, wines, slivovice, cakes 😅 Also to get to know where they are from. I did this so many times when we were celebrating and other friends from town would too.
Díky tvým videím a pohledu cizince, si člověk uvědomí, jak nádhernou zemi máme. Akurát si toho nějak nevážíme... Thanks for your vids, through your eyes i can see how beautifull country i live in.. Maybe we should appreciate it more... Thx buddy, maybe i will meet u once and we will get some drinks together:))
Tak na Moravě si toho vážíme.. nevím jak zbytek České republiky . Na jediný Moravě mají lidi ještě.. nějakou hrdost ..

Moravia is sometimes said to be a completely different country ,but it is also said: what is in Moravia is beautiful
Thanks for giving us opportunity to see the world Andre, much love from South Africa.

I love how much effort you put to these videos. I've just read the description bellow this video and I'm blown away! You're such a cool and positive lad, ať se daří 😊
wow that is from Rakvice! it is just about 13km away from my home! I hope you enjoyed your stay André, This region is all about the experience and traditions
Oh man you are so lovely ... from me as a czech guy ... it means something ... you are making a good thing man shooting these videos

hello, if corona virus allows it, I recommend to visit next year international folklore festival in Strážnice :) good job, take care
ze sladkého je ke slivovici nejlepší vdoleček !
Now that i think of it it's amazing that every village has their own Kroj and not a single is the same.
Dobre ty, Andre :)
Pozdrawiam czeskich braci z Polski
👋🏽🙂
U Kulatého stolu mi doporučili tvoji tvorbu. Držím palce tvá tvorba mě baví.
I instantly recognized the yellow pants and realized this was only 2 villages over from mine
Super video. Nikdy jsem to neviděl.
Tak to by ses měl jít někdy podívat naživo. Hody mají neskutečně příjemnou atmosféru.
@@awrixeldohoda2857 souhlas! Pro mě je to spíše než příjemnou atmosférou, hřejiví pocit u srdce. ❤️
@@awrixeldohoda2857 souhlasim, jen ta dechovka to vzdy zkazi, ale jednou za rok se to da vydrzet :)
@@davidace5444 Prosím? Za mě by to bez té dechovky nebylo ono, to k tomu prostě patří. I ta dodává tu domáckou příjemnou atmosféru. Ale jak myslíš xd
@@awrixeldohoda2857 asi si uplne nerozumime, ja folklor miluji, moravska lidova hudba je krasna, ale dechovku fakt nemam rad. spousta lidi zamenuje dechovou umelou tvorbu za lidovou. radeji bych na hodech slysel housle a cimbal
Such a beautiful culture! Thank you for sharing! 😊
Hi, i just discovered your chanel and seen few Czech videos, you should come to visit Slovakia..either some vilages in mountains or directly the high tatra, both are very beatifull and showing the culture of Slovakia.
Hahaha I'm watching your video and in 12:30 is a friend of mine that I went to high school with in class :D.. cool video ;)
Mate you are legend
Znovu velmi dobré video, díky za něj. Já jsem Moravan a Morava je moja vlast.
krásné , Andre! , já jedu na jižní Moravu příští týden na dovolenou .. z Valašska :D ;)
Damn, I would really like to see some more comments from people, who are not Czech :D
Dobre ráno . Dúfam že si užívaš dovolenku. I have questions for you where is that Česky a Slovenský shop in Croydon? Ďakujem Pekny den
That was great, thanks Andre !
To je tak blízko od místa kde žiji, doufám že dojedeš někdy i k nám na vesnici.
Tak zde sis musel užít ♥
Wow that looks fun, I wish I could go there sometime
Well, as a driver I can't tell I am happy about Hody :D Villages are closed or you have to be look out for drunk people, so.. :D Any excuse for drinking :D But I like they keep the traditions alive.
Thanks Andre, perfect. I'm from slovakia but somehow never appriciated this celebration they are having to the level visiting it. I might now, for the fun and drink.
Super video, ale nejvíc mě pobavil Vjetnamec v tradičním Českým kroji :))
Rakvice! 😍
Rakvice, the best wine in czech :)
Krásná tradice :)
a pretty long village :D
André, please, what is the name of the village, where the "Hody" were held?
Name of the village - Rakvice
I love being in the procession.
škoda že v mé vesnici tradice pomalu zemřela. Máme tu posledních asi pět staříků, kteří se to snaží ještě zachránit, ale omladina už na to prostě není a když už někomu na tradici záleželo, tak odjel do města za prací nebo se odstěhoval, když zakládal rodinu.
Ano Rakvice.
Je u nás krásně co Ondro...❤️
Seems like you had very good time bro.... well done
Cesi, narod alkoholiku :D
lol the dude from the beginning said basically "it's hot as hell" (meaning about weather)
Tak v Londýně jim tam 360 dní v roce prší že xd
Úžasné video 🙌
Hey André, if you like castles and medieval fortresses, I suggest you to check Spissky Hrad, Bojnice, Trencin in Slovakia.
André doin great job, thank you.
Also be aware... there is kind of this event run by womans only... they also parade around village having stops in front of their houses where is always a little snack :-)
Dobry DEN!
Iam from moravia village and have never expirienced that. That holy moly!
Prima video.
yesss, Moravaaa :D
Excellent! What village? Brno? Budisov? Did you get the story of the little wagon with the nest of Slivovica? Clearly, you rate highly among the visitors when you get a whole bottle of the wooden oak Slivovica! slivovica, Slivovica, SLIVOVICA
Jesus Christ, Brno is not a village...
OK, Brno is not a village. What do you know about Budisov?
Rakvice
@@sharpshooterCZ200S Brno is a low tier settlement bro. own it.
@@Alone-sf7wj Well, yes, the people of Prague say that it is the last village before Vienna, but it is a city.
Andre you should visit small town in the south bohemian region. Its next to the Czech Budweis a small town whith name Trhové Sviny. If you want to try. I will introduce you whith all beautifull monuments.
Nice video ! Thank you
Klasika :D
such festivities in Moravia are called feasts
Please do video n village Příkosice. Its in Pilsen region
Vinéčko bílé :)
Morava je tu :D
RAKVICE
You should go to Velké Bílovice too!There will be hody soon:)
Have you been to hody in a town called Hluk?
Ahoj :D Taky bydlím v Rakvicích, je super slyšet jaký máš názor na Rakvice a že se ti tam líbí :)
:D
Morava❤️❤️❤️
Best place in CZ🤗👍🏾🤎
Zajedu se podívat do Bystřičky
Moravian are the best people
Great video, but these subtitles doesnt make sense.
♥️♥️🥰
André makes videos to present Czechia to foreigners.
Foreign viewers: 0
Czech viewers: almost everyone plus some Slovaks
André Face ist coca cola hahaha
Next time, dress better :) its look wierd in that t-shirt. Na hody se chodí v košili :D :)
Have you ever tried fruit dumplings with butter and flour sugar? or strudel or semmelbaba? we call fruit dumplings blboun(stupido :D) and its awesome.. i reckon moravia has largest fruit orchards so there it should be more popular than in bohemia.. funny when i say fruit orchard .. when say it in english i want to play anno 1404 again :D
the bottle you re holding that is myslivecká aint it? rye moonshine... not trnka.. right? i had it yesterday :D
lol stará myslivecká is said to be like czech whiskey.. with 500 years tradition
@@janplasil4066 myslim, ze to byla jen lahev. proste domaci palenka, ktera byla prelita do lahve od myslivce
@@davidace5444 právě, že to mělo i stejnou barvu jako myslivec a myslivec taky zraje v dubovym sudu stejně jako whiskey
jako dost mi to zamotali jelikož to je originální láhev a je i možný že nevěděli jak říct anglicky myslivec tak řekli slivka ne všude máš google :D + většina lidí na vlastní chlast používá svoje etikety to je to nejmenší.. muj otčím je z přerova má tam na skladě nějakej 300 litru+ slivovice a ma i svoje etikety :D
Stará myslivecká is definitely not a slivovice. :) It is made from rye as some whiskeys.
I'm pretty sure it's homemade rakija just recycling a bottle
To je jenom lahev na domácí pálenku
Moc hezké. Tyhle věci většinou v Čechách vymizely. Hlavně v Sudetech, tedy severní a západní Čechy, to je co se týče nějakých tradic, krojů, oslav svých kořenů úplně o ničem.
A byli tam vůbec někdy?
to není pravda, nejvíc vymizely ve Středních Čechách u Prahy.
@@petroley Za Němců asi :D
@@hvezdoslav8992 To je jasné, tam taky. Snažím si představit něco takového v Kladně. Marně.
@@petroley Byly a hodně silné tradice. Jenže s vyhnáním původních obyvatel zmizely.
You czech? Im cz já jsem xd
Man Im pretty sure in Czechia is less freedom of taking pictures...
GDPR :( But nobody really cares
I am going to call you by nickname "Mirecek" Your homework is to find out why.

Já bydlím kousek od tud v Kyjově
Jen bych asi řekl že co vesnice to jiné nářečí a zvyky
South Moravians be like: Let´s block the roads for several hours to march and scream random sounds
LMAO
Its not random sounds.
They are singing
@@michalminarik5658 these wooo haaa sounds while marching are definitely not singing :D
@@The08Channel the high pitched sounds are just part of celebration but normaly this event takes few days and large part of it is young guys singing traditional songs , but it is not shown in this vid where they sing
O hodoch patří na cestu iba žebřiňák a zpívající průvod
Naše morava😂
Andre nepi tolko, da sa na to rychlo navyknut.
I was always curious where all those Moravian traditions came from, beause it looks very different than traditions in Bohemia or in other Slavic countries. Moravian traditional cloth is very overdecoraded and I would say it's kitsch, no offense, I am just saying what I see. On other hand, traditions in most of Bohemia or for example in Poland look much more simple and even clothing is more simple and practical than in Moravia. I heard that traditions has something to do with some Romanian or Hungarian immigrants or something like that, it looks completely foreign for someone from other corner of Czech Republic. :-)
I think it's pretty sad that most of people speak only about Moravian traditions and you can find nothing about west or south bohemian traditions.
If you want to see how traditional clothing, architecture or langauge look like in southern bohemia, the best way is watch "Princezna ze mlejna" fairytale. :-)
Romanians and Hungarians in South Moravia? To my knowledge Hungarians moved to Slovakia. Some parts of Slovakia are pretty much still Hungarian. Maybe you've mistaken South Moravia with South Slovakia. I don't think there are any Hungarians or Romanians. South Moravia was historically and culturally very much connected to Austria. I know about some Croatians who moved to South Moravia during the Habsburg Monarchy era, but they also moved to Austria. Some villages in Austria and South Moravia are inhabited by Croatians, but they are fully assimilated.
@@tomassiegl512 There is some history about why region is called Valašsko which is similar to name of region in Romania, but some sources are saying this is just a myth. If it's myth, I am still curious why Moravian traditional cloths look so alien to me.
@@Pidalin In the case of Valašsko it is possible. I've also heard about that story, but it is only a small part of Moravia. I don't know the answer. I only know that the Moravian countryside (small villages) was predominantly Czech speaking. While cities and towns in Moravia had a German speaking majority. For example the dialect of the Czech language in Brno (brněnský hantec) has so many German words (or originally German) because Brno (Brünn) used to be a German speaking city, but the villages around it were Czech speaking. Southern Moravia and Olomouc region had connections with Austria. Northern Moravia and Silesia were German speaking. Only Valašsko and some villages close to the border had some connections with Slovakia I think.
You can read this for some basic history insight:
lucsim.estranky.cz/clanky/historie.html
The Reason kroje are so much decorated is beacuse they were supposed to show off wealth, as much as possible. But the overall history of them Is vast, rich and differs from village to village as the way they looked was evolving a lot.
This Is just a short version, beacuse there is so much more to this tradition than meets the eye, and like mentioned, details do vary from village to village.
There is simply nothing like a "moravian traditional cloth", each village/region has completely different style of it. The decorations show the historical wealth of the village, therefore if you are to travel to historically less wealthy region, the traditional costume would be much, much simpler.
