The Baťa of Chotěboř_A portrait of the factory owner,resistance fighter and émigré Vilém Eckhardt

Summary/Abstract: Vilém Eckhardt’s factory was not a branch of the Baťa group, as many people believe. Nonetheless, its owner had a lot in common with Tomáš Baťa. He also began with a workshop that had a few employees. Likewise, he considered his workers to be more like collaborators, and he prepared a social programme and facilities for them. Moreover, when the country was occupied, he put himself and his financial resources at the resistance’s disposal via Baťa’s foreign affi liates.
