Despite having a difficult name to pronounce, Brno is probably one of the cities where you can easily feel at home. Despite the passage of World War II, this Czech city has risen from its ashes as an important center of cultural activity capable of fascinating all travelers. Barceló Hotels & Resorts in Brno opens its doors to guests attracted by the new reality of the Czech Republic.
In 1927, the German architect Mies van der Rohe was commissioned to build the Villa Tugendhat for the wealthy family of textile industrialists Fritz and Grete Tugendhat. To this day, this set is a World Heritage Site; a sample of genuine functionalist architecture after the restoration of 2010 and 2012. Also notable in its skyline are the National Theater and the Morava Gallery, which will impress travelers with their converted industrial appearance.
The old part of the city is characterized by the Spilberk castle, whose enclosure houses the Gothic castle and two chapels; it is currently the headquarters of the city museum. Although without a doubt the most impressive profile of Brno is offered by the Cathedral of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, which was first Romanesque and ended up being rebuilt as Gothic to later become Neo-Gothic in the 19th and 20th centuries. From its tower, the views are unforgettable.
A little further from the center is the Staré Brno monastery, where Gregor Mendel studied and lived for years and where he developed his genetic theories known as 'Mendel's laws'. After the visit, if the weather is good, you can try Czech beer on the terrace of the Starobrno factory, the largest brewery in the city.
If the guests of the Barceló Hotels & Resorts in Brno can boast of anything, it is enjoying a full agenda that does not forget any of the city's attractions. Enhance your trip by staying at one of our hotels in Brno.
