Villa Tugendhat

Beautiful House, Wonderful Guide – Can’t Wait to See the Inside 👏🏼 We had a lovely outside tour of the house and were so impressed. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and went out of their way to translate and explain everything in English, which really helped us connect with the history and architecture. The house itself is stunning—truly a must-see in Brno. We’re already looking forward to coming back for an interior tour next time. ❤️

Disappointed by the tour. The guide itself was fine. We were expecting a bit of history considering one of the most important decisions was made in this place and shaped 2 countries but not a single word regarding the dissolution of czechoslovakia. It was only about architecture with very precise details of every room. I think that rather than seeing 5 bathroom it would have been better to learn about history. Otherwise the place is beautiful.

UNESCO World Heritage site. An absolutely must-see building designed by architect Mies van der Rohe. A quiet and relaxing place. We were only able to visit the exterior since the interior tours are fully booked three months in advance. Downstairs, there is a small shop with a few exhibition pieces and souvenirs

Anyone can enter a garden as long as they are not inside the building. It was 100 years ago, but what did a person who had a modern building feel like.

Beautiful neighborhood and a great building done by a master! Similar style done by another architect near by is a cafe call ERA.

ok: tell mies van der rohe to build your family home without financial boundaries, keeping in mind then recent and future pandemics, with lots of venting, air filtering, light and easy to clean bathrooms. timeless luxury. super nice guide, would even go again. tram stop 5 minutes away.

I couldn’t understand why UNESCO included Villa Tugendhat on its protection list. I read that it represents the early features of modern architecture. The garden is nice, but I’ve seen much more beautiful ones in other places I’ve visited. The villa is surrounded by glass, maybe it has the distinction of being the first of its kind. It could also be because it hosted many historical meetings, including the agreement for the separation of Czechoslovakia. However, I don’t think it’s under UNESCO protection just because it's a glass-walled villa. Perhaps UNESCO should protect all of Europe, as every street in Europe is historical, and nearly every building has a painting or sculpture on it.

The villa is certainly fascinating and an architectural treasure, but there are places in Brno that are definitely worth s visit more. You have to book s tour many weeks in advance, plus the tickets are really overpriced. You can visit the garden for free and just roam around.

Wowza! If you are near Brno...you have to check out this house! You need to reserve your tickets beforehand (like months), which we did not know, otherwise you only get to look at the house from the outside. We just walked around and were glad we did. Such a cool house with great architecture and style. I wish we had known the proper way to plan because I'm sure the inside would have been well worth it! The gift shop on the back side of the ground level is worth the stop in. Reasonably priced souvenirs/information to take with you as a memory. I would love to see this next time I visit. The neighborhood surrounding the property is really pretty with lots of great houses to see on your drive in and out too.

What a special place to visit in Brno. If you want to experience a tour, it's highly encouraged that you reserve at least 1-2 months in advance. Tours are between 8-10 people per hour, it sucks cause it makes it difficult to get a reservation but at the same time it's awesome cause you get a very small and private your where you can access every room and corner of the house. What is Vila Tugendhat? It's Mies Van Der Rohe's European masterpiece built in 1929 for the Tugendhat family, who appreciated modern architecture.

An architectural masterpiece that unfortunately is manged by such a dismissive management. Only garden tours are available (with tickets ordered through mostly unfriendly, grumpy staff), and visits needs to be made three months in advance (despite of not seeing such a crowd over tours).

Unforgettable experience, architecture, art, design, history. I definitely recommend both professional and amateur visitors.

I was able to make a reservation less than a month before my visit by begging via email. Otherwise it is recommended to make reservations at least two months in advance and the others there when I was agreed with me about this. The tour was in English which was a boon to me, I speak no Czech at all. The price for the tour is very reasonable as almost everything in Brno has been. The house is incredible, words can't describe how amazing it is. The spaces, the views, make you want to live there. However, it is clearly not lived in, not one bit of clutter at all. But the mechanics of the house make you long to have a house like it. The windows, the air conditioning, the beauty of it all, makes you want it all. They have done a beautiful job with the renovation, replicating the furniture and wall coverings so well. The staff is very good, helpful and knowledgeable. This alone is worth a trip to Brno, a place I hadn't heard until recently and didn't think to visit till I got this chance. People are very pleasant and accepting of our language deficit. I would give this site ten stars if I could.
