  1. Radegast/Radgost/Radhost – an old pagan god. IDK his deific domain.

    Its also a brand of beer thats a bit too bitter for my taste but otherwise OK.

  2. Radegast

    is Slavic god of good food, plentifull harvest, hospitality, sun and fire

    In legends he visited peoples houses in cameo as ordinary human, only to see if they are hospitable and good persons. If they was, he would reward them for their kindness

    It is said that he could transform into forest creatures

    It originated from Baltic folklore, but was present in Czech lands since the Roman times

    The sculpture is from 1960’s i think, its smaller replica is in town hall of Frenštát pod Radhoštěm.

    According to christian sources in early medieval times there was a shrine dedicated to Radegast on top of mount Radhošť, but was destroyed and replaced with wooden church

    Also its a brand of tasty beer

  3. You can find that Tolkien was inspired by this slavic mythology god in creating the character of Radagast (the Hobbit movie)

  4. To je RadHost. Ancient Czech God who is belived to invent how to make people being happy (cz. rad), and defined Czech as porn category on his hosting. The tradition is continued since then to modern times, just look at his happy face from having big boobs and horny cock in his hand. /s

  5. Beer God. Tastes like piss mixed with rain water. His followers commited suicide on the mountain cursing the brewery for generations to come. Just couldn’t live with the piss taste in their mouth anymore…

  6. And according to legends (well, at least my grandma’s legend…) there’s a statue of him made of gold, hidden somewhere in a cave in the mountains… as reported by a farmer who hid there during a storm, but never found the place again 🙂
