    Unfortunately, currently it's under construction. They put some huge buildboards around it so people can read about this historical part of Olomouc. There are ongoing Christmas festivities which are worth to check it out. Very pretty.

    A 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.

    This church is huge and the decoration inside is stunning. 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.

    St. 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.

    In love with this place. What a beautiful spot for a romantic walk in spring. It's full of flowers and different kinds of trees and plants. I'd really recommend anyone to visit and spend a couple of hours walking around and enjoying the atmosphere. It's not crowded (at least not when we were there) and the sound of the stream makes it even more enjoyable.

    I 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.

    It is a nice little chapel to remember on St. John Sarkander. When we were there it was unforunately closed, but still we could take a look inside.

    Usually we have some problems with the tourist information offices, as mainly uninterested people are sitting around not giving any information,. This place is an exeption: friendly with a lot of information material in different languages.

    In 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.
