This is possibly the most underrated place in Brno. If you’re visiting the city, be sure to check out the amazing interior!

Exquisite church not only connected to Gregor Mendel but also to Leoš Janáček who sang there as a child before becoming organist at the age of 17.

Lovely church, funded by the Polish&Czech queen Elizabeth in 14th century, but unfortunately open ONLY during Masses....

Nice concert, but the pughs are a little uncomfortable for sitting a long time.

The construction of this church, dedicated to the Assumption of Our Lady, began in Staré Brno (Old Brno) in 1323. It was initiated by Queen Elisabeth Richeza, the widow of Czech King Václav II (Wenceslaus II of Bohemia). At the same time, she founded a women’s Cistercian cloister right next to the church called Aula Sanctae Mariae. When she died, she was buried in the basilica and her tomb was marked with an ‘E’ and a royal crown.
