Nový Jičín
SEE MY TRAVEL GROUP ON FACEBOOK :
On 18 May I travelled from Kraków to Brno in the Czech Republic. En route I stopped off at Novy and Stary Jicin in Moravia. Here we see Novy Jicin, a wonderful town of 26,000 people with a fantastic town square.
Once you step into the town, its atmosphere can be felt: everything is trimmed in a harmonious orderThese are the words of an early 19th century visitor, and since his time nothing has changed.
The town really has an old, cosy atmosphere reflecting evident peace.
Most of the landmarks are situated in the centre of the town, which was declared a protected cultural area in 1967. In the middle of this area, there is a uniquely symmetrical square with many historical houses, arcades on all four sides of the square, and the Zerotin Castle nearby. The castle is a registered office of the towns museum with a permanent exhibition of hats that are manufactured in the town.
An old legend says that the town was founded by a woman, a daughter of the owner of the nearby castle Stary Jicin. Poorly-founded linguistic ideas assumed that the proud noble seat was called Jitcins castle and belonged to Bretislav, Jitkas husband and the first Moravian Knight.
The reality is significantly different: Jicin refers to the wildness, or rather to the Slovenian word for boars, and thick and inaccessible woods. That is why the nearby hill is called Svinec Boars Place.
Its location in the landscape is another noticeable characteristic of the town. The picturesque basin in the south part of the Moravian Gate range verges into Podradhostska uplands.
After several minutes of walking, one feels to be in a totally different world. To smoothen the sudden change, the town citizens supported the creation of several parks. Woods grow through the parks right into the town.
Town and landscape these two features belong to one another an a visitor will surely appreciate it.
Novy Jicin is a historical centre in the first place. Since its foundation at the end of the 13th century, the town went through many changes, but none of them has changed its unique and historical character. The Crave, the Cimburk the first owners of the town are remembered for their effort in the town founding.
Novy Jicin had a bad luck with many destructive fires it suffered. That is why hardly any documents exist today. The Zerotin family, new owners of the town since 1500, made the towns most meaningful history.
Novy Jicin was getting rich due to the weaving industry, until it was able to buy a chamber town title. An influx of German inhabitants occurred at the end of the 16th century influencing the balance of nationalities in the town. This also meant an adoption of Lutheran religion. In 1620, king Friedrich Falcky promoted Novy Jicin to the kings town rank but after the White Mountain battle, a drastic downfall struck the town. The proud inhabitants of Novy Jicin had to live under Jesuit rule since 1624 for another 150 years
Extensive fires in 1768 and 1773 almost burned the town to the ground. Nevertheless, Novy Jicin returned into its new shape. Businesses flourished once again, the emperors road connected the town with the surrounding world. Between 19th and 20th century, Novy Jicin enjoyed an industrial and cultural boom. The textile industry was very profitable, not only it made high chimneys appear, it also provided for many valuable mansions for the new town elite. We should not forget to remember that the hat industry developed successfully by the end of the 19th century. Today, the town is called the town of hats.

Pimpin' in Nový Jičín: The City of Hats in Czech Republic
On a day trip, with fellow TBEX travel bloggers, we visited to famous Nový Jičín, Czech Republic -- a.k.a. City Of Hats. This town has a long history of making hats, and is still one of the largest producers in the world. One famous brand still making hats from 1600s is Tonak. They make all styles of hats. We visited the hat museum visitors center, and had fun trying all the cool styles out. After that I found an awesome little ice cream stall that had the darkest and richest chocolate ice cream for $1 a cone. Czech Republic is an amazing country to visit.
Thank you for watching!

Truck Crash with Train 2016
Truck Crash with Train 2016
Video Link :
In Court with the truck driver who caused the last year's tragic accident in studénce, flash and surveillance footage of the accident.
The court in Novy Jicin resolves a collision with a truck Pendolino express train in Studenka, in which three people died and more than twenty injured. In general, threats of negligence is the responsibility of the Polish driver Slawomir Wojciech Sondaj. He faces up to ten years in prison. According to the indictment he entered the crossing, even though the red light flashed. In court he said that he had not noticed, and he did not do it on purpose. But he had reservations about the security system crossing.
I did not do it on purpose. It's a great tragedy, said Sondaj court. After having entered the crossing at a red light that shone for 30 seconds, and warning buzzer, jailed him on the track barriers. Shortly after he crashed into a truck rig Pendolino. Because the defendant shortly before the collision bit rode, escaped the cab without injury. The train, however, scattered semi-full plates.
When the gates at the top, I thought I could go
In court Sondaj said that he confused the security system. According to him, it was a mistake that was not crossing light signals synchronized with gates. He says that when the red light should be below the barrier. It's inconsistent. Security Devices aired different information, said the defendant. He said that if the gates at the top, he thought he might go.
Light signaling have not been synchronized with gates. When the red light should be below the barrier. Security Devices aired various information. That puzzled me. I thought that when the curtains upstairs, I can go.
