JEŠTĚD: A SYMBOL OF IDENTITY AND INNOVATION

An iconic silhouette that has become part of the city’s, region’s, and even a university’s emblem; a structure that locals inherently perceive as part of their identity; a national cultural heritage and a building nominated for entry on the UNESCO World Heritage List. All of this describes a single building that has crowned the summit of Ještěd Mountain above the northern Czech city of Liberec since 1973 – the Ještěd Hotel and Television Transmitter.
