Krásné Pole is a borough and municipal district of the city of Ostrava, Czech Republic, situated in the western part of the city. Originally, it was a separate village, until it merged with Ostrava in April 1976. On 24 November 1990, it became one of the 23 self-governing boroughs of Ostrava. With its elevation of 334 meters (1,096 feet), it is the highest-located borough of Ostrava.
Etymology The adjective krásné (neuter form of krásný) means beautiful in Czech, and the noun pole means field, the name therefore translates to English as 'Beautiful Field'. The name was likely chosen due to the panoramic view of the Beskid Mountains visible from the area.
