Czech Village in Cedar Rapids is a one-of-a-kind place, a home away from home for the many Iowa residents who trace their heritage back to the Czech Republic.

Sykora Bakery, a hole-in-the-wall that makes its own bread and pastries daily, is the last old-school Czech bakery in Iowa – and once you try the specialties, you’ll know it’s one of a kind.
