It was built between 1927-1929 for the family textile factory owner Alfred Stiassni. It was later a government villa that hosted many important state visits, such as President Edvard Beneš or Cuban leader Fidel Castro.
Ulice Veveří
This street is a group of outstanding Art Nouveau buildings called Tivoli (tram stop Konečného náměstí), and a number of baroque and other beautiful historical buildings. Nearby is one of three botanical gardens in Brno. The street goes from the historical centre and leads to the north.
BVV
The largest trade centre in the Central European region with many important fairs. The largest are Autosalon, MSV (International Engineering Fair), Invex (International Fair of Information and Communication Technologies), IDET (International Exhibition of Defence and Security Technologies and Special Information Systems), a Vinex (International Wine Fair) and Pivex (International Beer Fair). Notable for its functionalist interwar architecture, it is mostly unused and fairs are held in newer halls. Guided tours are sometimes organized.
Otevřená Zahrada
An NGO project to bring city gardening and nature to the city centre. You can walk there for free, have a picnic or join some of their periodic activities.
Park Lužánky
The oldest public park in the country and the biggest park in Brno. There is an artificial brook with living fish and a number of similar nice things. Perfect for picnic, but can get crowded in nice weather.
Launch a hydrogen rocket, star in the TV weather report, freeze your own shadow, experience an earthquake, set free a tornado, and get to the bottom of the Bermuda Triangle. Near the Brno trade fair complex, playful explorers of all ages will find more than 170 interactive exhibits over an area of nearly 5,000 m² that will give them a better understanding of the world around us.
