The On the Traces 2023 initiative was the regular follow up of the pre-defined series of school exchange between the Czech Matyas Lerch Gymnasium in Brno and the Gymnasium of Vaduz, LI. As usual, the Czech students with their teachers visited Liechtenstein in mid September 2023. They enjoyed the guided tour through Liechtenstein, a visit of the National Museum and the Old Cinema, a visit to the Parliement and to the Art Museum, hiking tour and vulture show and a guided tour to the medieval castle Gutenberg. The farewell evening with minigolf and pizza closed the visit to Vaduz. In October the LI students were hosted in Brno, CR. The proven programme included Czech lessons in the school, meeting at the County Office of South Moravian Region, a city tour through Brno, three trips - to Milulov, to Lednice/Valtice and to Slavkov, and a journey to Vienna. The visit ends with a dinner and bowling. 17 Czech students and 13 LI students participated.
The event further strengthened the bilateral relations between the Czech Repub-lic and Liechtenstein by establishing long-lasting friendships between the pupils across bor-ders. The lecture on the common history and the joint activities about the history of the two countries increased the understanding between the pupils and the two countries.
