Welcome to North American Czech-Slovak Heritage, the podcast dedicated to celebrating the rich heritage and vibrant stories of the Czech and Slovak communities across North America.
In today's episode, we delve into the fascinating story of Joachim Gans, a remarkable figure whose legacy bridges the Czech and American worlds. Born in Prague, Bohemia, Joachim Gans was not only an accomplished metallurgist but also one of the first Jewish settlers in North America. His journey from Prague to the shores of Roanoke Island, where he conducted groundbreaking metallurgy experiments, sheds light on the early interactions between European settlers and indigenous peoples in the New World.
