Unicov: Kašna s orlem - Marian Column - Masarykovo náměstí v Uničově - Královská radnice
Few places in the Olomouc Region have a history as closely tied to the privileges of a royal town as Uničov. Its historic core is organised around Masarykovo Square, a broad civic space where the Royal Town Hall reflects the town’s long municipal tradition. The Marian Column, a Baroque religious monument, and the Eagle Fountain provide formal focal points among townhouses with varied historic façades. Uničov developed on the Oskava River in northern Moravia, where the Haná plain meets the foothills of the Jeseníky Mountains. The town remains an important local centre for the surrounding countryside.

Tucked into the Upper Morava Valley beside the Oskava River, Uničov is a town whose character is shaped by the broad lowland beneath the Jeseníky Mountains. Founded in 1213, it ranks among Moravia’s oldest royal towns, and its compact centre still follows the form of a medieval settlement. Masaryk Square is anchored by the town hall and a Baroque Marian column, while streets around it retain a sense of the town’s long civic life. Uničov also gave its name to the Peace of Uničov, concluded here in 1370 by Emperor Charles IV and Louis I of Hungary. Beyond the centre, the valley’s fields and nearby uplands place the town firmly in northern Moravia.

Olomouc Region occupies a varied inland belt in eastern Czechia. Its terrain moves from the fertile Haná lowlands around Olomouc to the forested Jeseníky Mountains in the north, where Praděd reaches 1,491 metres, the highest summit in Moravia and Czech Silesia. The Morava River provides a north–south thread through the region and has long supported settlement and farming. Olomouc, the historic capital of Moravia, retains a notable baroque core; its Holy Trinity Column is inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Smaller towns, agricultural country and mountain communities give the region a distinctly changing character.

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.
