Stará radnice

The Stará radnice is the Old Town Hall of Ostrava, serving as both a historical landmark and a museum. Visitors go here to explore exhibitions detailing the city's history and to climb the tower for a panoramic view of the surrounding urban landscape.

Location and Access

The building is located in the center of Ostrava's old town. Since it is situated within the city core, it is accessible by a short walk from most central hotels and transit stops. Reaching the site from the immediate city center typically takes only a few minutes.

Planning Your Visit

Allow approximately one to two hours to tour the interior exhibition spaces and ascend the tower. The time required depends on how much detail you wish to spend on the historical displays.

Timing

Visiting during weekday mornings generally avoids the larger crowds that appear during weekends. The tower is accessible during the warmer seasons, though weather conditions can affect the visibility of the city views.
