History & geography

History

The first written mention of Hanušovice is from 1325. The village was burned down during the Bohemian–Hungarian War (1468–1478) and renewed a hundred years later. In the 16th century, the hamlet of Holba was founded. Hanušovice was originally an agricultural village, but became industrialised in 1852 after the cotton mill was established. In 1923, Hanušovice and Holba were merged. The municipality became a town in 1975.

Geography

Hanušovice is located about north of Šumperk and northwest of Olomouc. It lies in the Hanušovice Highlands. A small part of the municipal territory in the north extends into the Králický Sněžník mountains and includes the highest point of Hanušovice, a contour line at above sea level. The town is situated in a narrow valley at the confluence of the Morava and Branná rivers.
