Program details
Discover brilliant Brno with this comprehensive tour of its many landmarks. The Moravian capital is an ideal destination during all times of year: in summer, the warm summer light brings out its beauty, whereas the crisp winter chill enhances its historical side. This tour takes you through the picturesque Old Town and its many palaces and churches.
Your adventure begins by meeting up with your guide at the Grand Hotel Brno. Your guide, an enthusiastic connoisseur of the city’s history, will at all times tell you the most interesting historical facts and gossip of the many sites you’ll come across.
Visit the slightly eerie Monastery of Capuchin Monks, built upon a crypt full of deceased friars whose bodies have been mummified by the pass of time. Move from the dark to the bright side of Brno with a visit to the Vegetable Market, which is brimming with traditional local life, and the beautiful Fountain of Parnassus.
Along the route, you will come across many impressive historical buildings such as the humble Reduta Theatre, the Old Town Hall and also the New Town Hall. But Brno’s Old City is especially famous for its churches. See the Cathedral of St Peter and Paul, the baroque St Thomas’s Church and also St James’s Church. Other sites you’ll contemplate are Freedom Square and the House of the Lords of Lipa. By the end of this tour you will have seen just why the Moravian capital is considered the quintessence of central European cities.
