Skuteč, Historic municipality in Chrudim District, Czech Republic.

Skuteč extends across 35 square kilometers of varied terrain at 412 meters above sea level in the Pardubice Region of eastern Czech Republic.

The municipality received its first written documentation in 1289 and developed along a trade route, gaining town privileges during the first half of the 14th century.

The municipality maintains two primary schools and an art school named after composer Vítězslav Novák, supporting education and artistic development in the region.

Located on the railway line between Pardubice and Svitavy, Skuteč provides essential transportation connections for its 5,042 residents and neighboring communities.

The municipality formerly housed significant shoe manufacturing operations through the Botas company until 2022, marking the end of a long industrial tradition.
