Slovakia Today, English Language Current Affairs Programme from Slovak Radio

As September 15 is a state holiday in Slovakia dedicated to its Patron Saint, we discuss why the tradition of worshipping Our Lady of Seven Sorrows is deeply rooted in this country with priest Branislav Čaniga. Artist Jana Zaujecová will explain the symbols she put into the vestment she created for Pope Francis when he was celebrating the Holly Mass in Šaštín-Stráže in 2021. A special Chapters on Slovak Music have also been inspired by the holiday.
