Slovakia Today, English Language Current Affairs Programme from Slovak Radio

On the Wednesday show we will be opening the time capsule from Michael's Gate in Bratislava. What was hidden in a mid-19th century capsule? Then we will discuss some Czechoslovak history connected to the spa town of Rajecké Teplice. Jiří Surmaj, a manager of the local hotel shows Zuzana Botiková copies of the Czech Crown Jewels. These copies refer to a little-known story from 1938, when in the vault of the Czechoslovak Bank in Rajecké Teplice the jewels were hidden from the Nazi oppressors.
