Where to stay in Veveří
Where visitors usually base themselves, and why.
Moravské náměstí and the streets behind the Red Church in Brno put Veveří closer to central Brno than any of the outer cadastral territories. That matters for beds. A guest here walks to Stopkova plzeňská pivnice, the Leoš Janáček Memorial and the Saint Wenceslas Orthodox Cathedral without needing transport, which is the argument for a room in the quarter rather than one out in Brno-sever.

About Veveří
What are the main landmarks in Veveří?
Veveří carries a long register. The Red Church in Brno and the Saint Wenceslas Orthodox Cathedral give it two very different congregations, while Convalaria Palace and Zemský dům III stand for the century of building that filled the streets between them. Memorials do the rest.
The Leoš Janáček Memorial, the Memorial of Adolf Loos, the Jan Skácel birthplace memorial and the Statue of Edvard Beneš in Brno stand within the same square kilometres, along with the Horse tram memorial in Brno and the Bust of Václav Robert Kounic.
What is the history of Veveří?
Brno annexed Veveří in 1850. Its present outline was fixed in 1969, and since November 1990 the territory has belonged to Brno-střed, which puts the whole of it under the district covering the historic core. Names outlast the boundaries.
The Former augustinian monastery, the Bust of Václav Robert Kounic and the Björnstjern Björnson memorial each fix a piece of that older Veveří in stone.
Where is Veveří?
Veveří takes up 1.98 square kilometres immediately north of the historic core of Brno, entirely within Brno-střed.
