The history of scouting in Ledečsko in the first half of the twentieth century

This bachelor thesis deals with scouting in the surroundings of Ledeč nad Sázavou in the 1st half of the 20th century. Specifically, it focuses on the camp activity of the 2nd Prague troop, which was in this area under the leadership of the prominent Czech writer and educator Jaroslav Foglar, who significantly influenced the troop character by his personality. The first part deals with the foundation and development of scouting in the world and subsequently in the Czech lands in the 1st half of the 20th century. The second chapter focuses on the development of the town of Ledeč nad Sázavou, its cultural activity and, last but not least, on the later founded Ledeč scout movement. The following two chapters, forming the core of the work, deal with the activities of the particular camps held in 1925-1945 and their everyday life. The last part of the thesis is devoted to how the work of the 2nd Prague troop in Ledeč is remembered today
