Krnov

Krnov became a town in the mid-13th century and from 1377, it was the centre of the Duchy of Krnov. The greatest development of the town occurred during the rule of the Hohenzollern family in the 16th century. In the 19th century, Krnov was industrialised and became known for its textile industry and production of pipe organs. Today the town is known for the production of the cola-based drink Kofola.

The most valuable monuments of Krnov, protected as national cultural monuments, are the former cotton mill and the pilgrimage site on the Cvilín hill. Notable landmarks of Krnov also include the Neo-Renaissance town hall, the Church of Saint Martin and the Krnov Synagogue.
