Discover Olomouc: Sunday tours with local guides
Guides from Olomouc are preparing to celebrate their day of work – on International Guides Day, they invite all interested parties to visit the city on Sunday, 22 February 2026. Experts from the Association of Guides of the Czech Republic will guide you through a rich variety of architecture, from Romanesque to modern, and share stories about various houses, palaces, churches, fountains and columns, as well as stories about many important personalities.
You will have the opportunity to learn about the key centre of the Great Moravian Empire, home to the Přemyslid princes, the ecclesiastical metropolis of Moravia, as well as its former capital, a strong Habsburg fortress and the second largest urban conservation area in the Czech Republic. The tours will start at 10:00 and 14:00 on Horní náměstí (Upper Square), where we will meet at the model of the city.
If you would like to take part in a tour, please register in advance by emailing [email protected]. This year, the tours will focus on the 460th anniversary of the arrival of the Jesuits in Olomouc and the 280th anniversary of the founding of the Societas Incognitorum scholarly society.
