Susice

Few towns in the Plzeň Region have a history as closely tied to match production as Sušice. Set on the Otava River in southwest Bohemia, the town developed as an important centre for the industry after a match factory opened here in the 19th century; the Solo Sušice name remains associated with that legacy. Its compact historic core centres on Svobody Square, while the Otava gives the town a distinct riverside setting. Above Sušice rises Svatobor, a wooded hill with a lookout tower and a familiar destination for walks from town. Sušice lies on the northeastern side of the Šumava foothills, connecting an urban river valley with the forested uplands beyond.
