Baťa

Established by Tomáš Baťa in 1894, the Baťa footwear empire is still in family hands and is one of Czechia’s most successful companies. The flagship store on Wenceslas Square, built in the 1920s, is considered a masterpiece of modern architecture, and houses six floors of shoes (including international brands as well as Baťa’s own), handbags, luggage and leather goods.
