Nová radnice, Town hall monument in Dominikánské náměstí, Brno, Czech Republic.
Nová radnice is the city's administrative building located at Dominikánské náměstí, featuring red tile roofs and ornate stone facades. The structure spans multiple levels with regularly spaced windows and a distinctive tower that rises above the surrounding square.
Construction started in the 1880s to replace the medieval structure from the 1300s that had become too small for the expanding city. The new building became a symbol of Brno's growth during the 1800s.
The New Town Hall functions as a central venue for municipal ceremonies, official gatherings, and community celebrations throughout the calendar year.
The exterior and square are accessible year-round, while interior visits are available at specific times. It helps to check ahead which areas are open to visitors, as conditions can change depending on city events.
The northern facade displays stone reliefs showing historical figures and moments from Brno's past. These sculptures tell the city's story in detail and reward closer inspection by visitors.
