Smaller but nice astronomical clock, built in 15th century. Nicely reconstructed in the fifties. The best time to come in see it it's by noon, when all the small statues come to life.

One the most beautiful town hall in Czech republic. Do not miss this one at historical square of Olomouc which is hosting a lot of cultural events throughout the year.

It’s fun to watch the whole performance like 7min long, sadly they only do it once a day at noon! What a fun day I bump into the filming part

Nice square and townhall as well. Defo seek the professional tourist guide to tell more about the place

Lovely. Different from the one in Prague but still stunningly beautiful!

Very beautiful see sight Colourful and a unique piece of art You can find your name or your beloved ones’ written there It’s in the centre and surrounded by towers and beautiful buildings and fountains

Fun to experience as the click strikes noon!

True architectural pearl of the Czech Republic. And almost no tourists! Hidden gem.

The beautiful gothic cathedral. You must visit here to see inside when you are in Olomouc.

I recommend to visit here on Tuesday to Friday so you can also drop by the museum next to the church. I didn’t expect a small city like Olomouc has a cathedral in this style. Personally find the architecture is more breathtaking than the interior.

The Olomouc St. Wenceslas Cathedral is well worth a visit. The beautiful and large building is situated near its museum and a lovely square, with a pretty garden next to it. The gothic structure has a beautiful interior, with an impressive collection of relics. You can also descent into the catacombs and pay respect to some earlier cardinals, bishops and archbishops.

We were surprised to find such a huge and beautiful cathedral in not so big city. We planned just tea take pictures and move next, but when we first saw it, we decided to seat on a bench next to cathedral and were looking at it about a half an hour. 100 meters tower, Czech king was killed in one of its room, and big restoration was made in 2007. So you should visit it.

Beautiful gothic cathedral full of history and faith

Absolutely beautiful cathedral in Olomouc! First mentions are from 12th century. Today’s look was mostly made around the end of 19th century. Indeed great piece of architecture! I highly recommend to visit one of organs concert.

Definitely one of the better zoos in Czech Republic. Can spent whole day there. Food options are rather poor though, mostly fast food unfortunately.

Nice place to spend time with family. Cons, because parking is really small and you have to park the car far from the zoo.

I like this zoo a lot. Kids are always happy to see nice health animals with plenty of room to walk, sleep and play. Food in here is average, do not expect to have something really special, but its not the major thing in here :). There are plenty of playgrounds for kids, who are thrilled to play there. You can visit lookout tower in the middle of the zoo, and see the whole place from bird perspective. Kids love to visit the goat area, where you can feed and pet the goats. Its so cool and small kids love this! The zoo is well taken care of and they improve the quality of this place each year!

We purchased the Through the Back Door and we have never had such great time. Both our boys were over the moon. Our guide was an amazing lady who took great care of us. Will be coming back every year!! Firmly embedded in our family traditions. Thank you!!

Fantastic zoo and was definitely worth leaving Prague for. Animal variety is extremely impressive and they are treated well by the friendly and passionate zoo staff. In contrast to many other zoos the animals are always clearly visible, while also assuring that they have the opportunity to remain unseen and undisturbed if they feel like it. There are also plenty of opportunities for getting up close with many of the animals, which can lead to some unforgettable interactions. There are also plenty of bathrooms, and kiosks where you can buy food, snacks, and dessert among other things. The zoo is also extremely well maintained and clean, making it a pleasant visiting experience. The only factor weighing down my score is the lack of credit card support in most if not all of the facilities in the zoo, which makes it important to bring cash in case you need snacks, drinks or you get hungry, while exploring the zoo.

Beautifal Zoo 7km away from the city of Olomouc. De tickets are cheap and you can spend 3 or 4 hours to see everhthing of the zoo. It is situated on In the hills and forest. When your finished it's nice to visit the Basilik church nearby the zoo. From here you will have amazing view over Olomouc. The zoo is also reached by public transport from Olomouc railway station you take the bus for 15 minutes.

Some animals have spacious areas, but there are still a lot of animals in smaller/older cages. Noisy train going around the zoo all the time, that could easily be replaced by an electric one.

We climbed the steps of the bell tower at St Maurice church, around 200 of them, to the top. The spiral staircase going up is beautiful. When you get to the top you can see the bell system and then go up another floor to see the view over the rooftops of the whole city. There are signs to explain what you are looking at and on the way down there are signs explaining the history of the church. We were the only ones up there at 2pm on a Sunday afternoon. The church ask for a donation only.

Beautiful church with a stunning interior. There are beautiful paintings inside and it was so quiet while we were there. One of the coolest things is you can climb the very ancient bell tower. I’m terrified of heights so it was a struggle but the views of Olomouc are beautiful.

The belltower climb is a bit exhausting but worthwile for the view of the city. Voluntary donation for which I would encourage people to give, as this building should be kept for the future generations.

We encountered a passionate church worker to introduce the magnificent organ to us, haha despite we didn’t understand the language. The huge touch screen panel helped a lot. We got to see the restoration process of the organ. If you are a fan of admiring organ, please visit here.

Beautiful church with a big Problem: This is one of the many beautiful catholic churches the city of Olomouc has to offer. It is open in the day time and enables a great opportunity for a silent prayer while traveling or just passing through the city. BUT: as a catholic I am ashamed that out of all places this sacred one is where you will be met with hostile architecture. In front of this beautiful church there are multiple benches. Those benches are all facing to the front door of the church. But all of those benches were adjusted to be hostile to anyone seeking a place to sleep. On the sitting space of those benches you will find randomly placed nobs. They serve no aesthetical purpose. Their only purpose is to make those benches uncomfortable for anyone who wants to sit or lay on them for more than 10 minutes. This is a shame. No bench and especially no bench that is facing a sacred church should ever be build to be hostile to the most deprived people. I obviously don't know if those benches are property of this parish or are agreed on by the church administration. BUT how can the church administration read Marcus 10:46-52 and still tolerate this hostility against homeless, disabled or elderly in front of their own church? I call out the administration of the church to exchange these benches if they are the church's property or to demand an exchange in front of the local authorities if the benches are in public hand. How can we sit in a church and listen to the gospel of Jesus taking care of the homeless and abandoned people while 2 meters in front of the church we have placed benches that are hostile to exactly those people? This has to be changed ASAP if this church wants to be serious about their faith in God and the church's teachings. May God forgive us the hostilities we commit and may God recognize our efforts to change to the better.

The church tower is free to visit, the view from the top is excellent

Nice cathedral and free observation deck with incredible view of the city (you can leave a donation to support the place)
