Zlin

Zlín lies along the Dřevnice River in eastern Moravia, where the wooded slopes of the Vizovice Highlands close around a long urban valley. The city is inseparable from Tomáš Baťa’s shoe enterprise, founded here in 1894, which turned Zlín into a major industrial centre and shaped its disciplined grid of red-brick, functionalist buildings. Building No. 21, the former Baťa headquarters, remains the clearest symbol of that experiment in modern urbanism. Zlín also hosts the Zlín Film Festival, an international event focused on films for children and young audiences.
