Brno is the city of churches

The ancient city of Brno performs the function of the administrative center of South Moravia. Many Catholic churches and churches are concentrated here. Among them is the monastery temple of the Basilic of the Ascension of the Virgin Mary, which was laid back in 1323. The shrine is located on Mendel Square.

In this beautiful city, it is certainly worth visiting the church of St. Michael, where there is a department with fallen angels carved on it. The sculptor who created this installation saw angels in a dream.

Arriving in Brno, tourists are happy to walk along the central square of the city – Square of Freedom, which retained its original appearance. The Cathedral of the Saints Peter and Paul spreads the bewitching sounds of a noon ringing around the city.

It is noteworthy that the tower watches notify the arrival of noon an hour earlier. This is due to the legend preserved since the war with the Swedes. According to legend, the enemies promised to remove the siege from the city if the inhabitants of Brno did not surrender until noon. But, thanks to the cunning of the bell -up, who notified the offensive of noon an hour earlier, the city was saved.

In addition, visitors to Brno should visit the legendary fortress of Spilberg, the Augustintsev monastery and the world -famous villa Tigendgat.
