What is there to do in Brno?

Brno is a city that can be explored in 2 days – 2 weeks…depending how deep you want to go.

Like all major European cities, there are museums, philharmonics, and other culture experiences. However here are a couple of must see activities.

Brno Underground and Ossuary (second largest in Europe)
Špilberk Castle – estabilished in the mid-13th century and has a long history
Museum of Romani Culture (the only institute of its kind in Europe)
VIDA! SCIENCE CENTER– if you’re here for a longer time, and especially if you have kids, this is a great place to visit
Brno Technical Museum
Moravian Art Gallery

However, probably one of our favorite things to do is to find a cafe, park or one of the squares and sit with a lemonade or beer.

What about near Brno? What can I see?

Just 10 minutes outside Brno is Slavkov…also known as the location of the Battle of Austerlitz (for those who forget high school European history, it was one of the major Napoleonic battles, also known as the Battle of Three Emperors). You can visit the museum (able to access with Public Transport).

If caves and water boats are more your style, you can also visit the Punka Caves and hike around the forests.

If you’re considering being in Brno for longer and you want to do day trips the following are 100% worthwhile to visit.

Telč – UNESCO site
Třebíč – UNESCO site, Benedictine monastery and Jewish Synagogues.
Mikulov
Lednice Chateau – UNESCO site for the gardens
Olomouc – UNESCO site for the Holy Trinity Column
Český Krumlov– multi-day trip…but 100% worthwhile

Outside Brno and South Moravia...what to see

Planning your trip...

In general Erin recommends arriving in Brno by Thursday 10 August just to give some breathing space, whether that means flying straight from the states and arriving in Brno, or if it means that your doing travels before hand.

Brno is super accessible by both bus and train from Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Bratislava, Krakow (bus), and Munich. Therefore, you can easily plan travels to any of these locations before or after your trip.

Personally, we think that anywhere you go you should plan to have at least 2 nights, preferably 3 to not feel too rushed.

Erin’s must see places in Prague

– Wallenstein Palace and Garden – its free, the gardens of the Czech Senate, and has a cool wall that reminds me of drip sand castles that has hidden animals in the design

– Park Legií – a park in the middle of the river that is nice to relax it with a drink and escape the crowds (there are always people… but it is also nature so feels more relaxing)

– Strahov Library and Abbey (and gorgeous view of Prague)

Video recommendations:

– Prague with kids

– Seeing Prague Castle without tourists

Vienna

Brno is considered a suburb of Vienna...though we saw the other day Vienna called a suburb of Brno which lets be real - totally better! You can get here from Brno in less than 90 minutes by train. Anyway - as the Capital of Austria, and known for its culture, definitely a place to visit - but plan for more focus of going into Hapsburg buildings rather then walking through a city. If you want a good Austrian city to enjoy just walking through and feeling like you are in something old, then next city is the place for you...
