JOSEFA KŘÍŽKOVÁ, NÁPRSTKOVÁ - VŠEDNÝ ŽIVOT SLUŽKY

Josefa Křížková, Náprstková (1838 – 1907) entered the service of the house U Halánků in 1856, as a servant at the distillery. Her desire for further education and her effort to bring some contribution to Czech society were fulfilled after the son of her employer Vojtěch returned to Prague. In 1874 Vojta opened his Czech industrial museum, and after his death, Josefa persevered in the realization of his dreams, which she had completely adopted.
