Ostrava is the Czech Republic's third city, a former industrial powerhouse of coal and steel whose post-industrial transformation has made it one of the most interesting cities in Central Europe. Dolni Vitkovice -- a 19th-century ironworks complex converted into a cultural and events campus -- is the centrepiece of this reinvention, hosting Colours of Ostrava (one of the Czech Republic's largest music festivals) and the New Karolina regeneration project.
Ostrava sits at the Czech-Polish-Slovak tripoint, giving it easy coach access to Krakow (130 km north-east), Wroclaw (170 km north-west), and the Slovak city of Zilina (80 km east). The Beskydy mountain range begins 40 km south-east.
Dolni Vitkovice is a UNESCO-listed industrial monument: a 19th-century Austro-Hungarian ironworks of blast furnaces, gas holders, and coking towers, now converted into a concert hall (Gong), a science centre (Bolt Tower), an amphitheatre, and gallery spaces. Guided group tours of the industrial complex run daily. Coaches park in the Vitkovice district yard adjacent to the site.
Colours of Ostrava (mid-July, 4 days) is one of Central Europe's leading multi-genre music festivals, attracting 40,000 visitors daily. The festival is held at Dolni Vitkovice. Group coach bookings from Brno (175 km south-west), Prague (360 km west), and Krakow (130 km north-east) are common. Book transport for festival dates at least 10 weeks in advance.
The Beskydy range begins 40 km south-east of Ostrava. Roznov pod Radhostem (55 km, the Wallachian Open-Air Museum -- the largest in the Czech Republic) and Lysa hora (1,323 m) are popular day-trip destinations. The Slovak border is 30 km east via the D56 motorway.
As a rough guide, a minibus (up to 19 seats) in Ostrava runs around 5,600-9,900 CZK per day, a midi-coach (around 35 seats) around 9,500-17,000 CZK per day, and a full-size coach (49 to 55 seats) around 14,000-25,200 CZK per day. Festival season (July Colours of Ostrava) and industrial conference events at Dolni Vitkovice see the highest demand.
