Zlin: Kostelec u Zlina: Lázně - Areál bazénů

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.

Centred on the industrial city of Zlín and the valleys of eastern Moravia, Zlínský kraj developed into a distinct region of Czechia. Zlín is closely associated with the Bata shoe company, whose factory-led expansion gave the city its notable Functionalist architecture. To the east, the White Carpathians follow the Slovak border, while the Morava River crosses lowlands near Uherské Hradiště. Velehrad, one of the country’s important pilgrimage places, adds another dimension to the area’s Moravian identity.

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.
