Where to go in Olomouc
Are you looking for culture? Then you are in the right city! Olomouc has a rich history, which you can learn a lot about in the National History Museum, located on Náměstí republiky. You should definitely not miss our largest churches, namely the Cathedral of St. Wenceslas, church of St. Morice with a tower from which there is a unique view of historic Olomouc, or the Church of Our Lady of the Snows, where Mozart himself played the local organ during his visit to Olomouc in 1767. Also worth mentioning is the baroque church of St. Michael with three richly decorated domes.
Olomouc is primarily a university city. Around 20,000 students move here during the school year. The oldest parts, such as the university library and the rector's office, are located in Křižkovského Street. On the premises of the library you will find a pleasant Coffee Library, where you can have something good and enjoy the atmosphere of the university spirit.
