Šenov (Czech pronunciation: [ˈʃɛnof]; Polish: Szonów; German: Schönhof) is a town in Ostrava-City District in the Moravian-Silesian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 6,600 inhabitants. Šenov is located southeast of Ostrava, in its immediate vicinity. It is urbanistically fused with Ostrava-Bartovice. It lies in the Ostrava Basin lowland, in the historical region of Cieszyn Silesia. The Lučina River flows through the town. Šenov was probably founded in around 1290. The creation of the village was a part of a larger settlement campaign taking place in the late 13th century on the territory of what will be later known as Upper Silesia. The first written mention is in a Latin document of Diocese of Wrocław called Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from 1305 under its Latin name Sonow. More information...
