Kroměříž (Polish: Kromieryż, German: Kremsier), first mentioned in 1107, is a Moravian town in the Zlin Region of the Czech Republic.  The development of the town was significantly influenced by the Olomouc bishops and archbishops.

Thanks to this Kroměříž ranks among today’s prominent historic cities in the Czech Republic. The centre of Kroměříž was declared an Urban Monuments Preservation Area in 1978. The complex formed by the Archbishop’s Palace, the Flower Garden and the Palace Garden was declared a National Cultural Monument in 1995 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1998. <br><span style="color:blue;"><i>The <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Scotch_Mist/Poland" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Scotch Mist/Poland">Scotch Mist Gallery</a> contains many photographs of historic buildings, monuments and memorials of Poland and beyond.</i></span>
