Throughout a total of five rounds and running until the beginning of July, we will be talking about the lives and activities of the famous Slavic missionaries Cyril and Methodius, who make up one of the most famous chapters in our country’s history. Learn about the actions of the Thessaloniki brothers on the then Great Moravia, their contribution on language, culture, literature and belief system. We will talk about the mission to create a national identity and references to the saintly pair in current times. We will also present the city of Nitra, which became the cradle of Cyril and Methodius traditions on our lands which this year celebrates its 1150th anniversary of the arrival of these two early trend setters on the land of today’s Slovakia.
Moreover, Skaritz Hotel and Residence is also on the cards, offering a three night stay in a luxury apartment with romantic fire place for two. Breakfast and time in the sauna are also available for the lucky winner. This exclusive stay would normally cost you €450, but if you listen carefully and answer the question correctly it could be yours for absolutely nothing with RSI.
There are two things you should know however: This competition is only open to people who live outside of Slovakia, and the winner must arrange their own travel to collect and enjoy their prize. So, get your pen and paper ready, and be in the draw!
