| Page Views: 1,052 Last Visit to Olomouc: August, 2003 | Olomouc, the town of fountains and churches by Carletto76 - last update: Mar 8, 2004 |
I've been to Olomouc in summer 2003, coming from Poland and on the way to Praha. I knew not many things about this university town in eastern Moravia, but I had a good "sensation", I thought it was a nice place to visit, and that sensation was right! Olomouc is really a pleasant town, mostly restored in its beautiful old buildings... I spent there just a day, a sunny sunday of August, with almost no-one walking on the streets... I was the master of the town! ;-) Among cobblestone streets and squares of Olomouc you will find many fountains and many churches, along with the theology university. It's a very quiet town, but during Winter it's populated by mostly students, so it has an enjoying young nightlife too. |

dabidc Tue Jul 19, 2005 21:57 UTC You describe another fascinating location, full of historic and interesting places to visit. It must be a custom to have large squares in The Czech Republi, do they make use of them at all? | diocletianvs Fri Jun 3, 2005 20:27 UTC Another interesting but undiscovered Carletto's page about an interesting but undiscovered Czech town. Great work! | globetrott Sun Aug 22, 2004 22:51 UTC an interesting page & great pics ! | deecat Sat Jul 31, 2004 13:30 UTC What a delightful town with many interesting architectual features. Loving myths, I would adore all the fountains named after the classical gods. Outstanding introduction and great photos. |
