Serbski seminar, Catholic seminary in Malá Strana, Prague, Czech Republic.

The Serbski seminar building displays baroque architecture with symmetrical proportions and decorative elements designed by Kilián Ignaz Dientzenhofer in 1724.

The seminary operated from 1724 to 1922, training Catholic priests from Lusatia during a period when German language education dominated the region.

Students established the Serbowka club in 1846, marking the first Slavic student organization in Prague and strengthening Sorbian identity.

The Hórnik library within the seminary opens every Wednesday from 13:00 to 15:00, offering materials about Sorbian culture and history.

The seminary produced graduates who preserved the Sorbian language, including J.P.Jordan and M.Hórnik, contributing to Lusatian cultural preservation.
