Brno is the second largest city in the Czech Republic and is the traditional capital city of Moravia. It is also the seat of Constitutional Court of the republic and is recognised for its importance to higher education. Brno has 11 universities and is well known as a great venue for trade fairs and exhibitions. Brno’s architecture is eclectic and is famous for having some of the first buildings to have used cast iron features and flushable toilets before they became fashionable. The Mahen theatre was the first to utilise electricity throughout the building.

King Wenceslas I awarded Brno municipal status in 1243 and the great age of the city is apparant in its buildings, culture and people. The Spilberk castle is an example of early Gothic which has been converted in to a baroque fortress. Petrov Hill has a Gothic cathedral of Saint’s Peter and Paul as well as monasteries and old convents. Not everything in Brno is merely ancient and you will find that a drive in your Brno rental car will take you to plenty of modern attractions including the botanical gardens, city zoo and the venue for the World Motor Grand Prix.
