Václav Havel’s Place in Seoul
On May 26, 2025, the ceremonial unveiling of the Václav Havel Bench took place in Seoul, the capital of South Korea.
This symbol of democracy, dialogue, and human rights has now found its place in another global metropolis—this time on the Asian continent, where Havel’s Places are still relatively rare. The monument’s new home is Yangjae-cheon Park in the Seocho district.
