Šternberk town is in Central Moravia, where the Hana plain rises up into the first hills of the Lower Jeseník Mountains. A town of around 14,000 people with a well preserved historic core, Šternberk originally grew up around a gothic castle that guarded the main northern trade route to Poland from the old Moravian capital, Olomouc.
The castle still stands today and is one of the main historic attractions of Šternberk. The others are the nearby Church of the Annunciation, the Augustinian monastery and the web of narrow cobblestoned streets around the original marketplace square.
