The lower Vítkovice Area

A must see in Ostrava. It feels like a movie set. There are a lot of information boards. We booked the tour (250czk for 2 hours with a guided group, book online, especially on weekends) and it was very informative but we were a bit disappointed by our guide. The bolt tower is amazing but not for people who have troubles with heights, it is very open (for some people from our group it was too much and they waited on the lower floor.)
The area is large - we went for a tour, had lunch and walked around the whole area and we spent 5 hours here. Would recommend to visit when it is not raining.

Amazing industrial area! You can really feel like in the steam punk world. It's a very good place for a short walking boot you can also take a guided tour inside some of the buildings. Really recommend this place, it's really unique!
There is also building with big playground for children.

Extraordinary place. Admission is free to walk through the whole area. Admission of 150 czk for U46 building y but worth to see the exhibits there. Also an admission is charged for the tower with it's view and cafe included (it makes sense to have a reservation on crowded days, otherwise you might not be able to get in). Also good for a family visit.

For the first time I was there in 2013 having fun on Colours of Ostrava. I am impressed to this day. The area is incredible! I have visited it again in 2020 and it has again left me speechless. Definitely worth visiting. Do not hesitate to visit also Bolt Tower with their café, it's worth it!

Fantastic industrial place

Beautiful post-industrial place. We have been there during our visit of Beats 4 love, it was awesome. Highly recommend.

There’s no more industrial place to visit, imo... Very steampunkish, rusty-beautiful. Whoever is responsible to make it available to see and walk around, a big thank you! Such a cool adventure to see the giant old machinery, pipes, and buildings... Awesome architecture!

Pretty cool area with massive heritage. 110% steampunk inspiration, with worn down rusty steel pipes and stuff.
You get an excellent view of Ostrava and surrounding areas.
Our guide spoke pretty good English. You can get a beer at the top cafe and bar 😉

The industrial zone and tour are worth the time to see! Tour lasts about 2 hours and guides you through a lot of the facilities. You get to climb to the Bolt Tower, which offers an amazing view!

A very interesting place to visit. Unfortunately, the World of Technics (Svet techniky) is closed on Mondays (2019) and we were there on a monday. It is a reason to return 😊 At least, we made it up to the Bolt tower and enjoyed a magnificent view of the city and its surroundings.

If you like the industrial æsthetic, then you have to make a trip to see this huge iron and steelworks, which are free to wander around. While I was there, a circus troupe were recording a video which added to the surreal feel. An easy tram ride from the centre. If you can get a guide, it really helps bring the scale of the place to life.

Amazing industrial experience, highly recommended.

We were amazed of that place everything was so big. Lots to do with kids. Nice people who were helpful and supportive .worth it!

Time to come again. Reopened after Corona and almost empty. Extremely fotogenic. And missing Landek mine once in Ostrava? No, no!

Totally free to walk around and get some cool unique pics! Happy I went:)

A lot of space, many things to do. Few cafés to make your visit even sweeter.

Great idea to reorganise old plant to wonderful creative place.
Exhibitions, cafe, public music box!

Very interesting place, take the guided tour to the metal forge tower.

All the installations on the ground can be accessed for free. If you want to visit the tower, you need to buy a ticket for a guided tour. Tours are in czech but we had a very nice guide that made efforts to translate everything.

Best place for festival in Czech Republic, we really enjoyed beats for love
