| Description | Industrial production in Moravia has a long history and tradition. Original concentration of manufactoral and factory production was based particularly in Moravian/Silesian – Prussian borderland and in Brno and its surroundings. Together with coal mining development and related production (metallurgy and metal works) the Ostrava region experienced intensive development, which was an exception to a certain extent, since centre of industrial development relocated during the 19th century, in a large degree thanks to developing railway infrastructure inland into newly established industrial centres. Just Brno, as a one of the most industrial cities of the whole former Austria, was in 1839 connected to locomotive railway and industrialization and urbanization of Moravia and Silesia was set off. |
