Any Lizards who ever find themselves here in Ostrava one day, we have tourist attractions!

According to the CzechTourism agency, over 676,000 people visited the former Vitkovice ironworks and the Landek Park mining museum in 2013.

Only four other historical sites, all in Prague, were more popular last year.

The Lower Vitkovice area opened to the public two years ago. It shows the history of iron making, people may visit an interactive technical museum and go up a blast furnace.

The adjacent Hlubina mine has been under reconstruction and art studios and workshops have been taking place there.
