Zamberk: Masarykovo náměstí

About location

Žamberk straddles the Divoká Orlice in the foothills of the Orlické Mountains, and the river valley has shaped a compact town between the uplands of eastern Bohemia. Masarykovo náměstí forms its civic centre: a broad, irregular square edged by historic town houses, commercial premises and public buildings. Its name honours Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, the first president of Czechoslovakia. The square and nearby streets provide an urban counterpoint to a region known for the wooded ridges and outdoor routes of the Orlické Mountains. Žamberk remains closely connected to the rural landscape of the Pardubice Region.

Pardubický kraj has been an eastern Bohemian heartland of the Czech lands since the Middle Ages. The Labe crosses its western lowlands around Pardubice before the terrain rises toward the Orlické Mountains and the Žďárské vrchy. Pardubice developed around its Renaissance castle and is associated with the Pardubice Steeplechase, a race first held in 1874. To the south-east, Litomyšl is known for its Renaissance château, inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List, while Kladruby nad Labem preserves the stud landscape linked to the Kladruber horse.

Country Czechia

The terrain of Czechia ranges from fertile lowlands in southern Moravia to mountain ridges along the northern frontier, giving this Central European country a distinctly varied geography. The Vltava runs through Prague before joining the Elbe, while the Krkonoše form part of the border with Poland and include Sněžka, Czechia’s highest mountain. Prague’s historic centre, with Prague Castle and Charles Bridge, reflects the city’s long role as a political and cultural centre. Beyond the capital, Bohemia is known for spa towns and brewing, and Moravia for wine-growing traditions.
