About event
Historian Peter Rybárik explains the phenomenon of tešinka - a unique hunting cannon from the Baroque period. It will explain what the technical excellence of its wheel lock and specific construction was, and how these richly decorated weapons were used not only for hunting, but also for the defense of cities in the 17th century. At the end, visitors will be able to see the original pastry directly in the Michalská veža exhibition.
The event will be interpreted into Slovak sign language for the Deaf and hearing impaired. The program is prepared in cooperation with the organization I think - the center of culture of the Deaf.
