About Hrabůvka
What are the main landmarks in Hrabůvka?
Two items honour one writer. The Památník Vojtěcha Martínka v Ostravě-Hrabůvce and the Busta Vojtěcha Martínka both carry his name, and the Kostel Panny Marie, královny posvátného růžence gives the district its church. Objevitelé vesmíru stands as public sculpture, and the RAF aviators memorial in Ostrava-Hrabůvka records the airmen it names.
Komorní klub completes the short list.
What is the history of Hrabůvka?
War and letters account for most of it. The RAF aviators memorial in Ostrava-Hrabůvka keeps the airmen in view, while the Památník Vojtěcha Martínka v Ostravě-Hrabůvce and the Busta Vojtěcha Martínka fix a writer's name to the district. Ostrava-Jih is the administrative frame, and Hrabůvka is one of the municipal parts inside it.
The Kostel Panny Marie, královny posvátného růžence remains the district's church. Objevitelé vesmíru belongs to another register.
Where is Hrabůvka?
Hrabůvka takes in 4.17 square kilometres of Ostrava-Jih, small enough that the Komorní klub and Objevitelé vesmíru fall inside one walk.
