This Was The Most Modern City In Czechoslovakia 🇨🇿
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- In this video I present to you the history of a man called Tomáš Baťa who was a successful entrepreneur during the Czechoslovakian times. I Take you all with me on a journey to Zlin which was the most modern city in Czech Republic, to discover how a mans vision would change the world by his own shoe business which expanded in 20 countries across the world which then would provide more work opportunity’s in this city and education also housing for the workers that worked in the Baťa factories. While I was out touring this town I buy some home produced chicken eggs and Vietnamese food. I will show a uncompleted railway project Baťa started and I show the old tower Baťa style buildings which are still standing. Tomáš Baťa was a Czech entrepreneur and founder of the Bata Shoes company. It became one of the world's biggest multinational retailers, manufacturers, and distributors of footwear and accessories.
Andé I swear if you keep making videos like this you will become the next bald and bankrupt. Everything good takes time and even Ben himself claimed that was recording everything until some day when he randomly got 5 million views on his video that got it all started. I hope something will happen to your channel as well 🔥
Awesome 🙂 much appreciated for this comment. 😃 I will keep it up 👍🏽
@@AndreTraveler you should do videos with Simon Wilson or bald and bankrupt.
Pocházím z tohoto krásného města a miluji toto město ❤.

Hero that we need but don't deserve. 👍
Thanks 😊
Bald already shared his views about the Czech Republic. I don't know if he is still living here. I would think he would prefer St. Pete Russia. What he said about the Czech Republic is right "if you want to engage with that Generation, (Generally people over 50) that lived through "za Comunismus" and don't speak Czech (or German often people over 70 will speak a bit) you are pretty much not going to get much conversation unless you get lucky and they speak English. You will get in trouble if you ask if they speak Rusky.. They will look at you strange and say, "hey foreigner should'nt you be like in Prague somewhere something talking to people where tourists go? and give you the cold shoulder,, wondering why we are all here buying up properties and making the place so damnd expensive". Not much Communist era stuff left besides the Panalaks, a few metro stations like Kacerov and Haje (I guess all the Ukrainians hanging out around and working the stands there give it a more authentic feel). Stalin Letna Praha 7. I can't think of one Mosaic I remember some in the early 90's. I'm sure the Czechs have done away with most of those. Hey man I just found your channel its good well done! I have some ideas myself to film but I got that full time job and weekends I just want to drown myself in a few local pubs. I've been in the CZ since the early 90's with a 10 year hiatus in between. That lady in the beginning behind you was making some comments about something, was not looking positive. I'm sure you wished her politely a nice day.

Important facts
1. Not soviet but rather socialist mosaics
2. The name of the town was Zlin, after during communism it was changed to Gottwaldov and after again back to Zlin
3. Bata have basically build that city from a village, he build a HUGE factory - thats where you should have started
4. Bata have build the main streets and housing areas and the famous British style houses
5. Bata was investing in lot of areas not just shoe making, in the best years they were building even planes
6. Currently the Bata organization operates in about 20+ countries as you said, but back then i believe it was 80+
Tak ty jsi borec! Pěkné náučné video o mém městě jsi udělal. A nejlepší na tom je, že si pak ukázal tunnel v lutonině za kterým bydlí můj děda :). Doufám žě tě někdy na náměstí potkám 😂
Thank you for going to Zlin, the city I lived in until 1981, before moving to Canada.
Nice vlog.
Bata also build his waterway going down to Morava river and then to Danube river connecting down to Black sea
Love that, mate. Born and raised in Zlin, the best city in the 🌎

U nás se říká bača,jdu do si koupit boty do bače...(:
Sakra bydlím nedaleko Zlína a o té železnici jsem nevěděl, až jsem se zastyděl, že borec z anglie toho víc jak já :D
4:05 literally I live 500 m from this place and every day I go running here or go for a walk with my dog. And I have NEVER SEEN this horse carriage here in my entire life :DDD
Strašný frajer 😁👍 držím palce v ďalších videách 😎
Next time you can go into the tower ;) there is very nice wiew. Very nice video btw
Fun fact: Tomas Baťa is also, where the prices ending in "99" originate from, which is also why we Czechians call it "Baťovská cena." Meaning "Baťa price".
Great to know this information 😃👍🏽
You are the Best. Go deeper to Batas visions and you will see his big pictures.
Great video.👍
So to smrdi 😄
André: "... a very steep hill..."
Me: "Not a hill, an embankment."
The highrise building was the second tallest in all of Europe at the time of its construction.
Baťa started to build the tallest European building in Brno, but due to problems with ground it is much lower.
Im live in Zlín and im so happy you travelled here 😀

Such a gem ❤!
I honestly wish all of Czechs would appreciate and show interest in our Country as much as you do
To je hustý! :D
OK, that's it, am giving "thumb's up!"
Great content man. I've been to Zlin many times, there's a rock/metal festival (Masters of Rock) every year in a nearby town of Vizovice. You should see the inside of the Bata Tower, there's a very interesting museum there. One of the interesting features of the building is Bata's office room which is inside of an elevator. The dude did not want to waste time to go up and down the stairs, so he literally made an office inside the elevator lol. If you're into golf, you should play the 9 holes course they have in Zlin. The ninth hole is ridiculous :)
Awesome 🙂
1:45 "It's a very steep hill"
2:14 "It's very steep"
2:17 "It's a very steep hill"
2:25 " This is a very steep hill you lot"
3:35 "Just a very steep hill"
This made me laugh XD
Nearly forgot 5:12 " just a very steep hill"
Never less this was a brilliant video keep it up!!
Vítej u nás ve Zlíně ✌
Super video jsi borec 😉✌️
nice video
Ahoj André, máš moc hezké videa z ČR. Jsme ze Vsetína, je to prdel světa, ale máme tady legendární pivo a skvelý kuřecí kebab. Přijeď, můžem tě ubytovat, dostaneš aj slivovici. 🍺🍺
You need to come visit Liberec and also my home region Broumovsko!
České titulky luxus. 😊. Měl by si sto někým nechat otitulkovat.
Maaan, OMG 🤩🤩 i watch you for couple of weeks...and wow...you’re amazing...but...the reason why i text this...im from Lutonina..i live in house next to the tunnel....why i did’t met you 😂😂 deam...
There is also unfinished Bata's motorway Zlin-Luhacovice,you can still see some fragments in Luhacovice and two concrete bridges in Ludkovice.This mystery railway is in Lutonina isn't?
Yes this part of the railway I showed is in Lutonina.
Actually this was not a motorway, just a better road. A motorway was being built in a diffent place.
And another one in Chřiby.
Oh my god, you should have named this video Zlín hitory or smth like this. Very cool vid!
🙂🙂
I live in Otrokovice which is 10km away from Zlín and I love this city so much ❤️. I actually studied at Thomas Bata university for a year 😁

Tomas Bača :D
I am from Zlín😁
Very nice video👍🏻from my favorite city😂
Natáčet se do tlamy jak žeru je odporné.
🤔💝🇨🇿
Mrzí mě že památník měl zavřeno... 😅, tak snad ti to v budoucnu někdy vyjde 👍
16:35 that´s me :D
Nice...
Lucky moment..
cuz I've missed him lol
:D I live like 20kilometers from Zlín, very unique city :)
10:16 My favorite moment from this video :D 🐔
Zlín was actually smaller then near Otrokovice in the past. That's why there is a bigger railway junction in Otrokovice. I live in Zlín now. I have to try that Slivovica in Budvarka as those guys adveced. :D
Zlín was not smaller, that is simply due to geography.
Navratilova je i v Bistrotece na Prioru, jinak se rozleva po cele v Praze a to opravdu v tech nejlepsich a nejoblibenejsich hospod a restauraci, treba i v michelince Field. 😉

History of Baťas plans and this railway is more interesting, It was one of proposals by Baťa (I know that there is ta leas one another with line going much more southern) for new railway backbone that would lead from Prague all the way to Uzhhrod. If I am not mistaken construction was halted due to WWII and not him passing away. And ever since this railway appears in plans but there are some serious issues with that line. E.g. too great inclines of 16 ‰ or fact that official plans would need distillery at Vizovice to demolished or that they build street in Ublo in the right of way of railway. And another issue is that as it was designed to be just single track, which is not great for capacity.
I used to write it here. Could you make a video or a series of videos about Czech castles and chateaux?
Come to Ostrava
Interesting how you'll find Vietnamese in every Czech City
Great video, my friend, i love the fact that you studied the history of this unfortunate place :D
There are cities in Brasil founded around Baťa factories as well. I wonder what Zlín would look like if it werent for nazis and commies.
I feel like people are really friendly there, or maybe its just that Zlín is my original home town. :-D
I didn't know Bata originated from Czechoslovakia; I thought it's Italian
Hey good video are you live in zlin
Nabízíme Navrátilovou slivovici v Penzionu Bawaria v Horní Lomné.
IM BORN HERE AND I LIVE HERE 7 YEARS I LOVE THIS CITY 🥰🥰✊🏻😍
I am from zlin too

Train lines are not build on a “hill” but that is a railway dam
You missed Tomáš Baťa famous elevator in main building.
Wore his shoes and sandals as a kid
The unfinished railway, I think it is pretty usable by bike, you know, you have the opportunity to travel through the unfinished rail by bike.
It is lovely to buy home-produced eggs anyhwere in bigger towns or cities, but do you know what is the very very best?
When you have chata or chalupa and your neighbour has hens and you can have / buy eggs, which were "produced" at the very morning and you can make yourself an omellete from them in the morning. There is nothing more fresh!
dude did u give some tips ? i never see :D
Možná někdo u půldomku bude mít ještě slepice :D
you must visit the Liberec, because its the best town in Czech :D.
I like the video, I like the Soviet mosaic
You have to go to beautiful a Slovakia to get Korbacik.

Pojed někdy do Uherského Brodu maji tam dobré pivo.
And I always thought he was either a Pakistani or Indian guy !!
Actually Baťa wants to connect Zlín and Vsetín by train and Hitler wanted to be finished too. But because of war it was never finished
Slivovica made of Švestky
Zdar ANDRÉ. A kolik si přivezl slepic ze ZLÍNA????? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Much appreciated 🙂
Most modern city... "Tam neberou kartu, ne ?"
Wait. Ive been pronouncing Bata wrongly my whole life HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
😂
How are you able to read ř in Czech so well, but then you say Baća. 😂 @ Andre the Čraveller
Stavba trati pokračovala i po smrti Tomáše Bati za jeho bratra Jana Antonína Bati. K definitivnímu zrušení stavby došlo až v roce 1951 komunisty.
Post soviet buildings
now is only czech and slovakia not chzechoslovakia :D
Fact: Zlín call in communist Czechoslovakia Gottwaldov.
Bald and bankrupt mosaics hahahh
This village was never modern at all
Hello Andre, another awesome video. Thanks for it, but you have missed some stuff what you can show. You can go on top of Bata tower and see the city from above, model of the city and so on. Also you can visit Bata villa, it is quite expensive to go inside, but it is also nice from outside. If you will come again into Zlín, don't hesitate to contact me and I can show you more about the city and tell you some interesting stuff.
no he will not become anything just youtuber for dements need to her the same all the time.
blm
