The study deals with modern-day city festivals in three Moravian cities (Jemnice, Brtnice and Jihlava). Those historicizing festivals emphasize specific features of their development and the history of the venue; they are based on self-identification, local pride and specificity. Although their origin reflects different geographic and historical circumstances, they share many common elements (long tradition; particular opportunity – a historical milestone to which the festivity´s development relates; very good support by local inhabitants who are organizers, parade participants and visitors). In the past, the festivals were strongly associated with Christianity. From the mid-20th century, the religious part was suppressed, however, it was at least partially renewed in all three cities after 1989. During the festivals, the cities experience a festive and extraordinary time and space separated from the everyday life. The organizing supports the perception of local identity, and it welds the community together. The residents of the cities feel compelled to organize the festivity. The festivals are important in terms of representation, economics and tourism, which is more and more emphasized. This puts stress on theatrics and rich accompanying programme.

This article looks at the life and personality of Emanuel Josef, the fourth Prince of Collalto e San Salvatore, a prince whose great-niece called him the last man of the old regime in Austria due to his impractical and odd character. The study looks only at the three most significant periods of his life: 1) his birth and childhood, 2) his morganatic marriage and its consequences, and 3) his family and financial situation at the time of his death. It relies on preserved archived materials and the contemporary press to do so. The objective is to acquire a closer look at the somewhat contradictory head of the Collalto family in the second half of the 19th century and early 20th century.
