Villa Tugendhat, Brno

Wonderful building, in my opinion it must be interesting even for non-architects, but I see that some people apparently hate modern architecture and fail to understand how innovative this building was 90 years ago. If you are that kind of person, then just skip it. The tickets are quite expensive but okay that is understandable. I am willing to pay the price when the building is in such a good condition (reborn from a very dilapidated state). I dislike the 300,- extra fee for making photos. That's too much and I saw that many people couldn't resist, made photos, and had to pay afterwards. I know that my photos would not have been special among the millions of photos made by other people, so I didn't pay the extra fee. 300,- just for a few photos is not a fair deal.

Quite an amazing place architecturally and a lot of history here too. It's definitely worth trying to visit. I've only give four stars, though, because of how hard it is to get a ticket to go inside. The tours book out so far in advance that you have to make a reservation about three months before you visit. That is pretty hard to do for foreign tourists who probably don't know so early which day they will be in Brno.

Amazingly influential modernist architecture from Mies Van der Rowe. Book way in advance in you want to go inside. We booked in January for our late May visit.

I could visit just the garden because I arrived too late. The Villa is great also outside and the view from the garden is really nice.

The villa itself is mind blowing, I've never seen a smart and well designed architecture as this one! Simply thanks to Mies van der Rohe. Recommended!
