Domowina

Domowina (Sorbian: "Home") is a political independent league of the Sorbian and Wendish people and umbrella organization of Sorbian societies in Lower and Upper Lusatia, Germany. It represents the interests of Sorbian people and is the continual successor of the previous Domowina League of the Lusatian Sorbs.

History

The Domowina institution, founded in Hoyerswerda in 1912, is situated in Bautzen. The Domowina was closed by Nazi authorities in 1937 and reopened on 10 May 1945, right after the end of World War II.
