Olomouc (Czech Republic) - Wink Travel Guide

Olomouc has the second largest and second oldest historic preservation zone in the Czech Republic (after Prague).

Olomouc is an exploring sightseer's paradise. A good place to begin is the main square, with its huge Town Hall and the Holy Trinity Column (the largest column in Europe), which was enscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2000.

Olomouc is doubtless the undiscovered gem of the Czech Republic. It is home to countless beautiful buildings, great culture (home of the Moravian Philharmonic Orchestra), and hundreds of unique restaurants, bars, and pubs. Olomouc is totally off the radar of most tourists, feeling quietly normal and relaxed even on a nice day in July.
