Stare Mesto

Staré Město occupies the flat alluvial plain of the Morava River in southeastern Moravia, within the Zlín Region. The settlement area was an important centre in the ninth-century Great Moravian realm, one of the early medieval states of Central Europe. The Memorial of Great Moravia preserves the excavated foundations of a church at the Špitálky archaeological site and presents finds from this period. A local harbour on the Baťa Canal connects the town with a waterway built in the 1930s to carry lignite and now used for leisure boating. Staré Město belongs to Slovácko, a Moravian cultural region known for its folk traditions and wine culture.
