Museum of South-East Moravia in Zlín

The Museum of South-East Moravia in Zlín is a regional museum run by the Zlín Region, with roots going back to the 1920s. Since 2013 it has occupied the converted Building 14 of the former Baťa factory complex, which together with the regional gallery and library forms the 14|15 Baťův institut. Its permanent displays cover the Baťa industrial phenomenon, the ethnographer František Bartoš and the travellers Hanzelka and Zikmund; it also administers Malenovice Castle, the Ploština national memorial and the Museum of the Luhačovice Zálesí region.
