Get to know the picturesque town of Nový Jičín, a birthplace of numerous figures, a town of hats, Renaissance and Baroque.

Visit a place where the architecture of several centuries combines. The historical centre was declared a municipal heritage preserve in 1967 and in 2015 it was granted “The most beautiful square in the Czech republic” award. On the regular square, it is worth mentioning the townhouses with arcades, and the centre of the square decorated with a plague column, with its sculpture of dancing peasants in Kravaře costumes, by France Barwig.
