Senov

The terrain around Šenov is gently rolling on the edge of the Ostrava Basin, which has shaped both the town’s built form and its economic ties with nearby centres. Situated in Czech Silesia between Ostrava and Havířov, Šenov belongs to the densely settled Moravian-Silesian Region rather than the mountain country farther east. Local landmarks include the Church of St Nicholas and Šenov Chateau, reminders of the area’s religious and aristocratic heritage. The town is now closely linked with the wider Ostrava urban area, whose development was long associated with coal mining and heavy industry.
