Evidence of folklorism in the town of Velká Bíteš (western Moravia) dates back to the first half of the twentieth century, whereby these efforts reflect a blending of various types of collective identities. After a period of decline following World War II, we can observe a resurgence of interest in folk traditions, leading to the establishment of the Bítešan Folklore Ensemble in 1965. In the 1990s, the organisational structure and future direction of the ensembles were influenced by its association with a club formed around the local museum. The current leaders of the children´s groups are motivated by their own identity- based attitudes, which they aim to cultivate in the children alongside their relation to tradition. The ensemble plays an important role in strengthening local identity and serves as a key element in the construction of regional identity.

The theme of Whitsun king rides has not yet been studied from the perspective of the entire western-Moravian region of Podhorácko. This is primarily due to the early disappearance of the tradition by the end of the nineteenth century and the delayed interest in local ethnography. Recently, renewed attention has been drawn to the revived Ride of the Kings festival in Ketkovice - the only event of its kind currently held in the region. Thanks to the care of the local municipal authority and the Podhorácko Ensemble of Ketkovice, the ride was recently nominated for inscription on the List of Intangible Elements of Traditional Folk Culture of the South Moravian Region. The motivation of those involved consisted in safeguarding this long-standing festival for future generations. Our treatise aims to place the Nomination File, primarily describing the current state of the element, into a broader spatial and time context.
