Liberec Region

The Liberec Region encompasses 3,163 square kilometers of territory, featuring mountainous landscapes and borders with Germany and Poland to the north.

The region underwent significant administrative restructuring in 1960 during Czechoslovakia, leading to new district divisions that transformed local governance patterns.

The Technical University of Liberec, established in 1953, operates multiple research centers and educational programs that influence regional development.

The region contains 215 municipalities across four districts, with the city of Liberec functioning as the administrative center for 450,728 residents.

Lake Mácha near Doksy receives 30,000 visitors yearly for recreational activities while scientists discovered a Neolithic settlement from 4,500 BC at Příšovice.
