Bruntál is a town in the Moravian-Silesian Region of the Czech Republic. It is located in the historical region of Czech Silesia. A suitable position in the middle of the Jeseníky Mountains provides ample tourism opportunities to the town, which offers sites of cultural interest that include a Baroque castle and many historical buildings.

Bruntál is situated between the Hrubý Jeseník mountains and the rolling hills of the Nízký Jeseník mountains. The town lies in a valley surrounded by several hills (Uhlířský vrch, 672 m (2,205 ft); Vodárenský vrch, 599 m (1,965 ft); Zadní Zelený vrch, 563 m (1,847 ft); Kozinec, 639 m (2,096 ft)). The Černý Creek with its tributaries, the creeks Bukový, Kobylí and Vodárenský, run through Bruntál.

Education

There are 5 preschools, 6 primary schools, and 6 high schools and a consultation centre of the Business School Ostrava. In addition, children with intellectual disability are provided their compulsory education in a special primary school.

Art education in Bruntál is addressed by Art Elementary School offering both music and visual arts education. However this kind of school does not substitute for compulsory primary school or high school and therefore children interested in arts are offered education apart of their primary and high school attendance.
