Looks to me like this Czechoslovakian stamp was canceled at "BARN". But none of my sources lists a place with that name in Czechia or in Slovakia or the Ukraine. Nor any town thereabouts that was formerly named Barn. Can anyone help me ID this place of cancel, please?

I found a town of the same name in a 1905 map of Germany. I believe Bärn was in Austria up to 1918 and then became part of Czechoslovakia. On the map below it's southwest of Troppau (now Opava).
