The evocative central streets are dotted with beautiful churches, testifying to the city’s long history as a bastion of the Catholic Church.

After breakfast, depart for the spa town of Luhačovice in Moravia. Famed are the natural medicinal springs, favourable climactic conditions and pleasant surroundings, in which beautiful nature is wed with typical architecture. Luhačovice waters are considered to be one of the most effective in Europe for their high content of mineral substances and for their excellent free-flowing carbon dioxide.
