Located in the Zlin Region in the Moravian part of the Czech Republic, Kromeriz is home to approximately 29,000 people. With its very origins dating back to as early as the first half of the 12th century, the town boasts numerous architectural masterpieces from different eras and it was even named the most beautiful historic town of the country in 1997.

Hidden among the picturesque landscapes of the Moravian region known as Hana, the town of Kromeriz is valued for an abundance of architecturally important pieces such as the Archbishop Chateau and its gardens (that are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site), the Jewish Town Hall, the St. John the Baptist Church, the St. Cyril and Methodius Temple etc.
