Cathedral of St. Peter and St. Paul
What the experts agree on
Twin neo-Gothic spires dominate Brno's skyline from Petrov hill, best appreciated from a distance. Inside, the ornate 1891 altar impresses, and climbing the towers rewards with panoramic city views.
“The highly decorated 11m-high main altar with figures of Sts Peter and Paul was carved by Viennese sculptor Josef Leimer in 1891. You can climb the tower for dramatic views.”
