Architecture

In the 1960s, Brno’s cultural circles began to try to restore the villa as a monument and open it to the public.

The Zwinger was built in what is known as the inter-museum.

Beginning in September 1945, the palace became the headquarters of the British occupation forces, whose Viennese sector included the two neighboring districts 12 and 13.

To get to the top floor (102nd), you have to climb 1860 stairs.

On the first floor of the building, there are special boxes called “artists boxes.”

Along the powerful, 7-meter-high walls of the fortress, there was a deep moat filled with water.

After the Battle of Grunwald and as a result of previous military operations in the years 1409-1411, the Teutonic treasury, until then the most powerful and richest in Europe, began to run empty.

The southern rosette also suffered much damage - only some of the stained glass originates back to the Middle Ages. French architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc restored the rest in 1861.

The side naves are separated from the main nave by columns connected by a semicircular arch.

Lady Liberty's right foot is raised.
