Kaple sv. Michaela archanděla

Beauty

Purity of shapes

The chapel is located in the village of Mratín and has been renovated. The chapel is owned by the village and it also contributed to the reconstruction. Mratín, a village near Prague. Neither small nor big. After the revolution, it grew a little with residents who moved into newly built houses. I also belong to those floodplains, as the old settlers sometimes call us "new settlers". I live well here and maybe my neighbors. And today we are citizens of Mratín, whether we live here for 60 years or 1 year and live together in peace. In the village, a lot has changed for the better since the revolution. E.g. playground for children, new sports grounds, construction of a kindergarten building, a cycle path, gradual repair of sidewalks, a new sidewalk that connected Mratín with Měšice, establishment of a municipal police, etc. The village also hosts events for children and adults. Welcoming the holidays, flying kites, a Christmas concert in the chapel, lighting the Christmas tree, welcoming new citizens, the events of Sokol, the Barracks Association, the amateur theater, the annual competition in the preparation of potato salad and more. Yesterday, October 27, we met at the chapel to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Czechoslovak Republic. The village management, together with the Falcons, Baráčníky and citizens planted a linden tree, then the children enjoyed the lantern parade. A wreath was laid at the monument to the victims of the First World War. Afterwards, everyone went to the sports complex, where a new book of photographs mapping life in Mratín from the past to the present was christened. The whole event ended with a beautiful fireworks display. I think we all had a good evening and evening and we commemorated this anniversary with dignity. Thanks to everyone who prepared this event.
