About location

Uničov combines the order of a medieval royal town with the civic confidence of its 19th-century centre in a way that reflects its position on the edge of the Upper Morava Valley below the Nízký Jeseník highlands. Masaryk Square is anchored by the Neo-Renaissance town hall, completed in 1892, whose tall tower gives the centre its unmistakable profile. Uničov is traditionally regarded as Moravia’s oldest royal town, documented in 1213, and its compact core preserves the broad square and street pattern shaped by that status. Colourful townhouses and formal public buildings lend the centre a notably coherent scale. The historic core remains a practical civic heart rather than a museum precinct.

Tucked into the Upper Morava Valley beside the Oskava River, Uničov is a town whose character is shaped by the broad lowland beneath the Jeseníky Mountains. Founded in 1213, it ranks among Moravia’s oldest royal towns, and its compact centre still follows the form of a medieval settlement. Masaryk Square is anchored by the town hall and a Baroque Marian column, while streets around it retain a sense of the town’s long civic life. Uničov also gave its name to the Peace of Uničov, concluded here in 1370 by Emperor Charles IV and Louis I of Hungary. Beyond the centre, the valley’s fields and nearby uplands place the town firmly in northern Moravia.

Olomouc Region
Region Olomouc Region

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.

Country Czechia

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.
