Prostejov: Náměstí T. G. Masaryka
Prostějov straddles the transition from the Haná lowland to the Drahanská vrchovina in the Olomouc Region, a setting that long connected the town with the fertile agricultural country of central Moravia. Masaryk Square forms its civic centre, dominated by the tower of the New Town Hall, completed in 1914. Prostějov developed from a medieval market settlement into an important Moravian town and became particularly associated with textile and clothing manufacture. The historic centre still combines formal public buildings, townhouses and a compact street pattern, while the wider city opens towards the flat fields of Haná.

Tucked into the fertile Haná plain of central Moravia, Prostějov is a place whose character is shaped by the Romže River and the region’s long agricultural tradition. The city became an important textile centre in the 19th and early 20th centuries, a legacy still present in its urban fabric. The Renaissance Old Town Hall on the main square remains a defining civic landmark, while the National House, designed by architect Jan Kotěra, is a notable work of Czech modern architecture. Cafés, markets and public events keep the compact centre active, closely connected to the surrounding Haná countryside. See how Prostějov fits within the broader Haná area by browsing webcams nearby.

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.
