Bishop's Courtyard

Historic Moravian Museum courtyard below Petrov Hill, with arcades, exhibitions, and summer performances.

Address Muzejní 1, Brno

Bishop's Courtyard is the older, quieter Moravian Museum site tucked below the Cathedral of Ss Peter and Paul. Its core is a former provost's residence, with surviving Gothic elements and Renaissance arcades layered into the compact courtyard. It is not Brno's biggest museum stop, but it gives the Petrov hill area a useful extra dimension beyond the cathedral view.

Exhibitions and opening patterns change, so check the museum programme before making a special trip. In summer the courtyard also becomes an open-air performance setting, which is the best time to see the space alive rather than simply passing through another historic building.
