Live Webcams in Ústí nad Orlicí

Ústí nad Orlicí is a town of some 14,000 in the Pardubice region of East Bohemia, at the meeting of the Tichá Orlice and Třebovka rivers, and the live webcams in Ústí nad Orlicí show a working town in a river valley: the Baroque main square, the industrial quarters where white storks nest on the chimneys each spring, the railway that runs through on the main line from Prague to Olomouc, and the meadows of the Orlice where the birds go to feed. The town keeps Central European Time, UTC+1, UTC+2 in summer; the storks arrive around the end of March and leave in August, the river valley is at its best from May to September, and winter brings snow to the square. Ústí grew on textiles in the 19th century and still makes its living from industry and the railway. In Czech the nest is a čapí hnízdo.
