Ostrava (in slesiano: Uostrawa; in tedesco: Ostrau; in polacco: Ostrawa) è la terza città per grandezza della Repubblica Ceca dopo Praga e Brno, e il capoluogo della regione di Moravia-Slesia. È situata alla confluenza dei fiumi Ostravice, Oder e Opava. La sua storia e la sua crescita sono state fortemente condizionate dall'estrazione e dalla lavorazione del carbone nero di alta qualità. Il carbone, soprattutto nel passato recente, ha contribuito all'inquinamento dell'atmosfera, depositandosi su case e strade. Ostrava si guadagnò il soprannome di cuore d'acciaio della Repubblica durante il comunismo in Cecoslovacchia. Molte delle industrie pesanti oggigiorno sono state chiuse o trasformate.
