What travelers are saying
- RichardK938West Palm Beach, FL729 contributionsThis was a nice memorial to the Czech plague victims. Very elaborate sculptures around the entire perimeter. It's even more impressive at night when lit up.Written February 18, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Avar88Ilava, Slovakia21 contributionsA beautifull cathedral that is poetic and inspiring. I loved photos that were taken when there was still corona, they hung them inside - the photos show people believing in it getting better and wanting to feel closer to god even though it was difficult-. The cathedral is a beautiful place and an old mister that was so generous to show us this place, explained the history of this place. Beautiful visit.Written August 20, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- EdGilRalDurham, NC22 contributionsStopped off in town for a couple of hours. Was in town square at noon when this clock started announcing the hours. I understand that this clock was built (?) in 1954, which explains the line of different workers who parade outside the building, not behind glass windows like Prague. This display went on for about six (6) minutes. At the end a cock crows and the show is over. I found it entertaining but a bit boring and did laugh at the crowing as to me it was unexpected.Written January 12, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- WaterloonieSanta Barbara, CA1,437 contributionsDominating the upper town square, this building has been spectacularly renovated. It has been well worth the wait.
Beautiful architecture and so important historically.Written June 28, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Built on top of a hill overlooking the valley and Olomouc you can look back and see the pilgrim road. The church is more a cathedral in size and beauty. Well worth a visit.Written August 29, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- PavlaPavlaChrudim, Czech Republic6,172 contributionsI liked this new fountain, which was created in 2002 as part of the reconstruction of the Upper Square. Especially two big turtles were very nice. One of them was situated in the water, but the second one was located next to the fountain, much to the delight of children that could climb or sat on it. There were quite a lot of benches around and people sat there, relaxed and enjoyed watching the fountain.Written June 20, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Frantisek RuzhaPrague, Czech Republic490 contributionsSt. Moritz is the most sympathetic church in Olomouc. On the one hand with its simple exterior, on the other hand with its viewing platform at the top. Inside is the organ of the best sound in the whole Czech Republic. Come to Mass and listen to this organ.Written September 24, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- 545medvaBudapest, Hungary3,972 contributionsIt is a nice little chapel to remember on St. John Sarkander.

- Morrie GLincolnwood14 contributionsMain reason for going to see a memorial to the crew of a B-24 Liberator bomber shot down in WW II. Half the crew survived. My uncle did not. The names of all of the crew members are listed on the impressive and tasteful monument. This was created by the Czech Association of Airmen in appreciation for the American effort in the war.Written November 5, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Beatrix TBrno, Czech Republic300 contributionsI only saw the building from the outside during a walk by the river and in the outskirts of Olomouc, but it was already impressive enough. Beautiful place, it's worth getting out of the city center for.Written September 13, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Equinox71Vancouver, Canada135 contributionsDecided on a whim while walking by to drop in here and we were glad we did. Had a great tour through the rooms with a very helpful guide and the assistance of some hand-held audio devices. The tour itself was a bit over half an hour which is perfect if one is only in Olomouc for a day visit. By all means check it out!Written August 15, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- 545medvaBudapest, Hungary3,972 contributionsIn Olomouc there are so many roman-catholic churches, that this was a wonder when we realized that they know even other religion. Very nice from out, sorra we couldn't get in.Written March 17, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
