    Abstract:
    The author reminds that 130 years ago the Czech Medical Society in Prague was founded. He mentions the difficulties which proceeded this historically important event during the Austrian monarche where the leading language was German and all attempts to introduce Czech into public life were impossible. The author mentions the names of those with the greatest merits as regards the foundation of the Society: J. E. Purkynĕ, B. Eiselt, J. Podlipský and E. Grégr who achieved after repeated attempts that the foundation of the Society was granted and its activities were started in July 1862. The first elected chairman was Jan Evangelista Purkynĕ. The author mentions briefly also the activities of the Society during the German occupation and subsequent years. If in 1862, the time of foundation, the Society had only 150 members, at present it has 1500 members and is not only the oldest but also the largest medical society in this country.
