This is the second-largest city in the Czech Republic, located near the border with Austria, about 210km west of Prague. The city`s skyline is dominated by the Spilberk Castle, where an early-Gothic palace with two chapels is still standing. Later on, the castle was converted into a Baroque fortress, and in the 19th century, it became known as the infamous “Jail of Nations”. Unfortunately, Brno is not as attractive for tourists as Prague, but on the other hand, you will find prices much lower compared to the capital. Recently Brno has been served by a few low-cost airlines flying to Brno Airport.
