2024Personalities - Anna Jurkovicova (1824-1905) - Set

Anna Hurbanová, born Jurkovičová, was one of the first actresses in amateur theatre in Western Slovakia. She was the first woman who dared to appear on stage with Štúr’s students and take on a female character. Her determination and desire to do something for the nation also translated into her marriage to Jozef Miloslav Hurban, whom she selflessly supported in the national struggle.
