For the Geo Quiz, we are looking for a city in Czech Republic. It is not the capital Prague.
We are looking for a city in the eastern part of the country.
This city is the historic capital of Moravia and was a big trading hub in Middle Ages.
There is a story that Julius Caesar founded the original settlement though it is unlikely he ever set foot there.
Still, the city began as a Roman military camp with the Julius’ Hill.
It is a city full of churches including a thousand-year-old cathedral.
Olomouc is the answer to the Geo Quiz.
For a city that goes back centuries, modern-day Olomouc is pretty trailblazing. It hosts a multimedia festival that recently commissioned an awe-inspiring bit of digital art.
