Five things to see/do in Brno: Take a tour of one of Brno’s most famous landmarks – the Spielberg Castle (Hrad Spilberk), a 13th century castle that once served as a prison. The castle grounds offer various concerts and cultural events.
Old Town Hall (Stara Radnice) in central Brno offers fantastic views of the city, as well as exchibitions/slideshows relating to the history of the city.
For something a little more morbid, check out the Capuchin’s tomb – a fascinating (if somewhat disturbing) collection of excellently preserved mummified remains of Capuchin monks.
The Cathedral of St. Peter and St. Paul (Katedrala sv Petra a Pavla) is probably Brno’s most recongnizable church. Famous for its bells that ring at 11:00 AM daily, the cathedral’s towers also offer great views of Brno’s old town.
The Moravian Gallery (Moravska Galerie) offers an impressive collection of art both from the Czech Republic and abroad. The museum’s collection of foreign art spans over six centuries.
