2. In the footsteps of history \u2013 the medieval town of \u0160tramberk<\/h1>\n

Annotation <\/b>
\nThis excursion will introduce the historical sights of the region, namely the picturesque town in the centre of the \u0160tramberk Highlands, known as \u201cMoravian Bethlehem\u201d. \u0160tramberk was founded in 1359 by the son of the Czech king, King John of Luxembourg (1296-1346), the Moravian Margrave Jan Jind\u0159ich of Luxembourg (1322-1375). The town and the surrounding area are dominated by the ruins of the Strallenberg castle including a cylindrical tower called Tr\u00faba. In addition there is a unique collection of timbered houses from the 18th and 19th centuries, most of which form the city conservation area. The territory of the town was already populated back in prehistoric times. The discovery in the \u0160ipka caves, where remnants of a settlement and skeletal remains of Neanderthals from 40,000 B.C. were found, testifies to this fact.<\/p>\n
