Stodolní street (Ostrava)

Stodolní street is a street in the city centre of Ostrava. It is a unique phenomenon of Ostravian social life. The street itself and its closest surroundings offers tens of bars, restaurants and clubs, which are abundantly visited by young people, especially during the weekends. The popularity of this street had lead to increased criminality and that is why the police patrols and CCTVs started controlling it. The street was reconstructed in 2006.
