Venue

The conference will take place in Rožnov pod Radhoštěm, the Czech Republic, a small town located in the picturesque region of Moravian–Silesian Beskydy mountains with many popular holiday resorts for both winter and summer activities. Rožnov is among the most favourite places in Czechia and is especially recognised for its Wallachian Open Air Museum, which consists of a set of wooden houses in the local vernacular style. The Wallachian Museum is the oldest and the biggest of its kind in Central Europe and consists of three parts: Wooden Townlet, Wallachian Village and Water Mill Valley. In its immediate surroundings, you can visit Pustevny, a mountain saddle known for richly decorated log buildings designed by the famous architect Dušan Jurkovič.
