Global InformationNarodnyi dim information
A narodnyi dim (Ukrainian: народний дім) is a community hall, used for cultural and social purposes by Ukrainians in Ukraine and in the Ukrainian diaspora. Narodonyi dim literally means "people's house" or "national hall". Narodni domy (plural) were modeled after the chytalni or reading halls of Austrian Galicia, many of which were coordinated by the Prosvita society.
Members of the Supreme Ruthenian Council (Ukrainian: Головна Руська Рада) started establishing these halls in the Austrian-ruled Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria during the "Spring of Nations" period of European history.[1]
