Lipník nad Bečvou, Historical municipality in Přerov District, Czech Republic

The municipality extends across 1451 hectares along the Bečva River, featuring a central L-shaped square surrounded by Renaissance buildings with arcades.

The first written record of Lipník dates to 1238, when it served as a settlement on an important trade route through the Moravian Gate to Silesia.

The Gothic synagogue from the late 15th century stands as one of the oldest in Moravia, reflecting the substantial Jewish presence in the municipality.

The municipality contains 109 protected cultural monuments and maintains direct railway connections to major cities through the Emperor Ferdinand Northern Railway.
