Why visit
Mies van der Rohe’s landmark modernist villa, celebrated for its open plan, materials and relationship with the garden. Completed in 1930 for Greta and Fritz Tugendhat, the house became a defining work of modern architecture and later a venue connected with the peaceful division of Czechoslovakia. It is included because it adds a distinctive experience to a realistic Brno or regional itinerary rather than acting as a filler stop.
What you will see
- Open-plan living floor.
- Onyx wall and modern materials.
- Garden relationship and technical systems.
