Uherské Hradiště, Royal town in Moravian Slovakia, Czech Republic

Located in the Zlín Region with 25,000 inhabitants, Uherské Hradiště forms an urban agglomeration with neighboring Staré Město and Kunovice municipalities.

King Ottokar II established the town in 1257 to protect a monastery, replacing an earlier Slavic settlement and fortification system from the 9th century.

The Slovácko Museum displays ethnographic collections while the Summer Film School festival contributes to the educational and artistic activities in the region.

The railway station connects to urban bus lines and regional routes, providing transportation services throughout the Uherské Hradiště District and surrounding areas.

Many historic buildings rest on wooden piles similar to Venice, causing the town hall tower to tilt over centuries of settlement.
