A show not only for the ladies is provided by this specialised museum, which you will find in the centre of the Czech shoemaking capital. More than a thousand exhibits will take you through the legendary production of the Baťa company (1884–1945) and also the history of a trade that has protected and beautified people’s feet since time immemorial. The oldest originals date back to the 16th century, Czech examples being supplemented with a unique collection of foreign shoes. Among the exhibits from around the world, you will see sandals made from emu feathers and human hair, which were used for ritual ceremonies in central Australia.
3. Vinarstvi Medek

Father and son-in-law: two allergy-prone guys who make natural wine that makes them feel great. Non-filtered wine with an absolute bare minimum of sulphure, fermenting on wild yeast, maturing on fine sediments, no extras added. Would you come for a wine tasting? Most favorite tasting is for 550 CZK per person, it's about 3 hours of chat over 12-15 samples of our wines. It's best to order your visit in advance — we hate that situation when we can't give you all the love you need because we already have another group in the cellar. Mr. Medek understands Russian (and speaks a bit also), Mrs. Medek speaks German and Jaromir, their son-in-law speaks English. We can also hire interprets to French or Russian if ordered in advance.

Very friendly service - our host Jarek was informative, easy-going, inspiring and spoke perfect English. Definitely would recommend to anyone interested in spending a great evening in a small, family-run wine cellar.

What a delightful experience! We were at the Wallachian Outdoor Museum on December 5th. We arrived late in the day as the hillside became festive with families headed up the hill to find St. Nicholas and his angel helper so they could get a treat! Of course the devil was also close by, but he was chased away by the ever vigilant angel! So much fun to watch the children, many of them wearing either angel wings or devil horns! The demonstrations inside the individual small houses were very nice. I’m so glad we had the opportunity to do this. The fact that it was the eve of St. Nicholas Day was an extra treat!
5. Archbishop’s Chateau and Gardens

A large and spacious park beside the Archbishop’s Palace, these gardens are beautiful to just rest and relax in. There are little lakes and watercourses, a tiny zoo of sorts and a farm for petting animals. Little kiosks serve refreshments near the palace. Statuary and little architectural follies are interspersed amid the trees and flowers of the large gardens. Perfect for a relaxing stroll in Kromeriz.

So really this is much more tower than it is castle. Unless we missed something. You enter one room with a few activities for kids, and maybe playful adults and that's about it for the castle. Then you pay a nominal fee to go up to the Truba tower. But it is worth it! Be sure that you appreciate the walk up to the tower, though. Narrow winding cobblestone alleyways, passing homes where they are clearly proud of their yards. Beautiful landscaping, fascinating lawn art. We went in October so the temp was perfect for a hike up. Note that the tower is closed for the winter - however, you still get basically the same view at the base of the tower with a nice veranda and a place to eat/drink in warmer weather. The tower is your quintessential endless winding stairs and awesome views. We went on a cloudy, foggy day and I'd still say it was totally worth it - especially if you make a day of it and eat the gingerbread ears (Štramberk Uši) filled with whipped cream and drizzled with chocolate, raspberry, or whatever you love, and visit the church and gift shops.

Illustration of the garden with elements of the late Renaissance Italian garden and baroque Classicist French garden art ... a rotunda with a Foucault pendulum, a 244 m long colonnade with an accessible gallery, large greenhouses, mazes, flower beds ... Is it all? ... Of course not .. You can visit one of the concerts held in the Flower Garden greenhouse. I participated in the concert of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Zlín and I listened to the compositions of J. Suk, P. I. Tchaikovsky and A. Dvorak of Novosvětská. An unusual experience ... Come to visit, you will not be disappointed.
9. Basilica of St. Cyrillus and Methodius

Reviewed By Pancho07
A Place where Pope Paul said a mass to over a million people from all over Europe. Pope Paul declared it to be the Religious and Cultural Centre of Europe. A World Heretage Site. A Place where St.Cyrillus and Methodius were invited by a King to bring Christianity to Europe from Contantinople in the 9th Century and built a simple wooden Chapel. Chapel and Cathedral built later was destoyed during the Hussite War during the attempted reformation of the Roman Catholic Church by Jan Hus. The Basilica was built over the Cathedral ruins where many cripts of Bishops and Saints were discovered. It is a Magnificant Place where Pilgrimages on foot come each first Sunday of the month from places like Uherske Hradiste for a celebration Mass. The original Chapel was rebuilt in Neo-Gothic style and a Monastery was added. Since my last visit a wall was built on the extensive grounds with huge statues of about 12 Saints. Visiting inside the Basilica is restricted to times outside of masses. There is a peacefull and Religious feeling when inside the Extensive Complex. During the Communist Era a seven meter high wall was built around the place so as to hide it from the People. In short it is a Magnificant and Historic Place
