Hradec Kralove: Regional Office of the Hradec Králové Region - Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary - Cathedral of the Holy Spirit - Velké náměstí - Former town hall - Malé náměstí
Hradec Králové straddles the confluence of the Elbe and Orlice rivers in eastern Bohemia, and that riverside position established its historic core as a centre of trade and administration. Velké náměstí is the old town’s principal square, framed by the former town hall, while nearby Malé náměstí tightens the medieval street pattern. The Gothic Cathedral of the Holy Spirit is one of the city’s defining monuments; the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary recalls the Jesuit presence. Hradec Králové is also the seat of the Hradec Králové Region. Its wider centre is noted for early-20th-century planning and buildings associated with Josef Gočár, a key figure of Czech modern architecture.

The confluence of the Elbe and Orlice defines the setting of Hradec Králové — the rivers create green corridors that reach close to the centre and frame its historic core. That core stands on the ground between the two waterways, marked by the Gothic Cathedral of the Holy Spirit and the Renaissance White Tower. A royal dowry town of Czech queens for centuries, Hradec Králové was reshaped in the early 20th century by architects Jan Kotěra and Josef Gočár. Their influential civic buildings and planning earned it the nickname “Salon of the Republic.” Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Hradec Králové and the Hradec Králové Region.

The Krkonoše Mountains and the upper Elbe define much of Královéhradecký kraj - mountain resorts and winter sports have long supported its tourism economy. On the Polish border, Sněžka reaches 1,603 metres, making it Czechia’s highest mountain, and stands within Krkonoše National Park. The Elbe rises in these mountains before flowing through the region’s lower country. Hradec Králové, the regional capital, combines a historic core with notable early-20th-century architecture linked to Josef Gočár and Jan Kotěra. Farther east, the sandstone formations of the Adršpach–Teplice Rocks introduce a sharply different terrain.

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.
