Where to stay in Obřany
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
The hotel question in Obřany answers itself in Brno's centre, because these 5.28 square kilometres on the city's northeastern edge carry housing and the streets that serve it, not reception desks. Nobody checks in on this edge of the city. What the streets of Brno-Maloměřice and Obřany hold instead is the Church of Saint Wenceslaus, the pomník Adolfa Esslera, and three further memorials.

About Obřany
What are the main landmarks in Obřany?
Five entries sit on the register for Obřany. The Church of Saint Wenceslaus anchors them; around it stand the pomník Adolfa Esslera, the Pomník Leopolda Harašty v Obřanech, the Pomník obětem nesvobody v Obřanech, and the Pomník Rudé armády, four monuments in a territory of 5.28 square kilometres. That is a dense count for the size.
None of it is a ticketed attraction.
What is the history of Obřany?
Obřany governed itself until 1919. Brno annexed the village that year, and on 24 November 1990 the territory was placed in the city district of Brno-Maloměřice and Obřany, a pairing it has kept since. The pomník Adolfa Esslera and the Pomník Leopolda Harašty v Obřanech name individuals the place chose to remember.
