Tomas Bata Memorial was designed by Frantisek Lydie Gahura, opened one year after the death of Tomas Bata, is the most valuable monument of the Zlin constructivism and the highlight of the so-called “Bata architecture” phenomenon. At the first glance the idea for the monument is simple: an empty prism placed on a visible spot above the town, on the central axis of the ascending park space, made up of several modules of the Zlin 6.15 x 6.15 m frame and clad only with cathedral glass. Inside, only the ill-fated Junkers F 13 aircraft in which Tomas Bata died in 1932. Gahura reduced the monument to three basic materials of Zlin architecture – concrete, steel and glass that were supposed to, together with the building’s composition, express the unique attributes of Tomas Bata.

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.
