Šumperk, District town in Olomouc Region, Czech Republic.

Šumperk is a district town in the Olomouc Region, sprawling across several hills at an elevation of 330 meters. The streets follow the natural contours of the land, with green spaces woven between residential neighborhoods.

German settlers from Silesia founded the town in the 13th century, developing it through mining activities in the region. Valuable mineral deposits shaped the area's economy for centuries.

The North Moravian Theatre and regional museum are places where visitors encounter local stories and artistic expression. The Blues Alive festival each year brings musicians from around the world to perform in the town.

The town sits on hilly terrain, so sturdy footwear is recommended when exploring, especially when crossing between different elevations. The green spaces scattered throughout offer rest spots and help with navigation as you move through the varied landscape.

The town center preserves architecture from different eras, earning it the nickname Little Vienna. This name reflects the elegant 19th-century building styles that define the urban landscape.
