PŘÍBOR<br />
12 km north-east of Nový Jičín<br />
The town of Příbor is one of the oldest in northeastern Moravia. In 1251 it was promoted to the<br />
status of a town by Přemysl Margrave of Moravia, later King Přemysl Otakar II. The <strong>historical</strong> core of<br />
the town was named after the famous native Sigmund Freud. Town houses in the centre are mostly<br />
renaissance with baroque adaptations. The gothic parish Church of Nativity of the Virgin Mary with<br />
a colossal tower dates back to the period of town´s founding. Late in the 17th century piarists came<br />
to the town <strong>and</strong> built a large college there, where the museum with a permanent exhibition devoted<br />
to Sigmund Freud is now located.<br />
