John Amos Comenius
Through years Fulnek was a manor owned by several noble families. During a period of prosperity, acting of members of Unity of the Brethren provided high development of education. A very important representative was John Amos Comenius, who has spent there three most beautiful years of his life – as he said himself. After the defeat of Bohemian Revolt (in 1621) he had to escape from the town.
