2023The 125th Anniversary of the Foundation of the TRANOSCIUS Publishing House - First Day Cover

On 27th April 2023, the Tranoscius a.s. publishing house will celebrate its 125th anniversary. Founded 125 years ago, this institution has not only served the needs of the Evangelical Church but has also fulfilled a cultural mission. On several occasions it has had an effect on national history and the restrictions it faced, on freedom of speech, the press and life, often mirrored the situation in the whole of our society. Name of publishing house was derived from the name of Lutheran priest George Tranovsky (1592 – 1637), who worked in Liptovský Mikuláš as a pastor, but was well known also like teacher, writer and publisher.
