Kosetice
The Bohemian-Moravian Highlands define the setting of Košetice — gently rolling arable land, meadows and small woods give this part of the Vysočina Region its open rural character. The municipality is home to the National Atmospheric Observatory Košetice, operated by the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute. This long-term monitoring site measures the composition of the atmosphere, including greenhouse gases, aerosols and ozone, making the locality important far beyond its small agricultural surroundings. Fields and scattered tree belts remain central to the settlement’s identity, while the observatory connects it with scientific study of the wider atmosphere.

Kosetice has served as a rural settlement in the Czech-Moravian Highlands since the Middle Ages. Set in the northwestern part of the Vysočina Region, it belongs to a gently rolling inland landscape of fields, small woods and dispersed hamlets rather than the country’s better-known mountain or river corridors. The locality reflects the long agricultural tradition of this part of Czechia, where village life remains closely tied to the changing seasons and the surrounding farmland.

The terrain of Kraj Vysočina ranges from rolling uplands in its central and northern districts to river-cut valleys in the south, giving the region a distinctly rural character. Set across the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands, it lies on the historic meeting ground of Bohemia and Moravia. The Sázava and Jihlava are among its principal rivers, threading through woods, fields and small settlements. Its cultural map has remarkable depth: Třebíč’s Jewish Quarter and Basilica of St Procopius form a UNESCO World Heritage property, while the historic centre of Telč is listed separately. Jihlava, the regional capital, provides an urban counterpoint to the surrounding highland countryside. Explore nearby webcam locations that provide complementary perspectives on Kraj Vysočina.

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.
