About This Museum

You might not expect to find one of the country's most poignant medieval collections tucked away in the shadow of Brno's St. Peter and Paul Cathedral, but here it is. The Diocesan Museum feels less like a formal institution and more like a quiet, contemplative space where the sacred art of Moravia has found a home. Its galleries tell a silent, powerful story of faith and craftsmanship that stretches back centuries. It’s a place that invites you to slow down and look closely.

Collection Highlights

Keep an eye out for the stunning collection of Gothic wooden sculptures, especially the pained Pietàs, and the intricate liturgical vestments that shimmer with threads of gold and silver.

Visitor Information

It's right there at Petrov 275, just below the cathedral spires—you really can't miss it. A perfect stop after you've climbed the hill to see the famous church.

Architecture & Building

Housed in what was once the chapter deanery, it's a handsome Baroque building that has been sensitively modernized inside, creating a beautiful dialogue between old stone walls and clean, contemporary gallery spaces.
