Anyone can take the nine suggested tours or create an architecture trail of their own. The information is also provided in the form of markings on the pavements outside the buildings providing codes of the buildings and internet pages. In this way, you can obtain information about a building simply, e.g. using your internet browser on your mobile phone, and listen to its story right in the streets of Brno City.

Tugendhat Villa Brno
One of the most famous Modern houses of the 20th century, this building expresses the same pure, bold aesthetic as the Barcelona Pavilion, but here the building is designed to be lived in. Photography is prohibited inside hence the exterior photos above. An intriguing feature are the living space windows which electrically recess into the wall below – genius!
