Kromeriz
Few places in the Zlín Region have a history as closely tied to the Olomouc archbishops as Kroměříž. Set on the Morava River in eastern Moravia, the town developed as an episcopal residence and retains an exceptionally coherent Baroque ensemble. The Archbishop’s Castle, rebuilt after the Thirty Years’ War, is paired with two UNESCO-listed gardens: the formal Flower Garden and the extensive Castle Garden. Kroměříž’s centre brings together arcaded squares, churches and civic buildings, while the river’s lowland setting gives the town an open, level character. Its cultural importance lies not only in individual monuments but in the way the residence, gardens and historic streets form a single urban whole.

Kroměříž lies along the Morava River, where the flat, fertile Haná plain spreads across central Moravia. The town is defined by the Archbishop’s Castle and its gardens, together inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 1998. The Baroque Flower Garden, laid out in the 17th century, is known for its formal geometry, colonnade and ornamental plantings, while the nearby Castle Garden has a more freely landscaped character. Once an important residence of the bishops and archbishops of Olomouc, Kroměříž pairs an orderly historic centre with a lasting ecclesiastical legacy. Velké náměstí, its main square, remains the civic focus beneath the castle tower. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of the Zlín Region connects regionally.

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.
