Celebration Of Miner’s Holiday – Barbórka AGH

Barbórka in the walls of the AGH University of Science and Technology in Krakow is a celebration of all graduates, miners and its supporters. This holiday is deeply inscribed in the traditions of the University. Still, it is also an important cultural event in Krakow, where observers and participants can learn about the mining traditions. The Barbórka celebrations at the AGH University of Science and Technology are extraordinary and recognized by our community and foreign guests.

In this challenging period related to the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, we hope to meet within the walls of our Alma Mater. Together, preserving the tradition and safety rules, we will celebrate St. Barbara’s Day. This year’s celebration of Barbórka at AGH University of Science and Technology will take place on December 9 and 10, 2021.

Barbórka in AGH cannot take place without the participation of our Students, Graduates and faithful Friends.

Today we would like to extend a cordial invitation to all of you: “Come to Barbórka to AGH”.
