Our Profile

The Hodonín Town Library is the educational, social and cultural center of the region and organizes a range of events to promote the cultural life of the town.

Library Misson

A place where people meet and connect with each other and being international. Our library has always been international, but the whole international aspect grew a lot during the year 2022. We held language courses for people from Ukraine who needed to get better at our language. During this period of time we also initiated discussion clubs with people from other countries such as Germany, or England. All of the activities are still running even to this day.

A public space of diversity, integration, participation and involvement.

As a democratic institution that promotes the goals of sustainable development, it participates in the development of the town and supports the founder in the concept of town development.

Ideas and activities on the topic of "Sustainability in libraries". As an independent educational institution, the library supports the goals of sustainable development and offers space for public discussion under the motto "Together we can do it". Our activities focus primarily on healthy lifestyles, the protection of nature and its wealth, the impact of climate change on the environment, water retention in the landscape, landfills and the reuse of raw materials instead of waste. We also offer ecological workshops for children and the elderly and present literary works with ecological themes.
