Svit is a planned town established in 1934, built around the Tatra shoe factory. Its functionalist architecture, designed by Czech architects, gives the town a distinctive, uniform look. Visitors can see the original factory buildings and worker housing, which reflect early 20th-century industrial design. The town also offers a museum documenting its history and the shoe industry.
