About
Tugendhat Villa, Černopolní 45 (tram stop „Dětská nemocnice”), ☎ +420 545 212 118, [31]. The villa is listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Designed by Mies van der Rohe, it is seen to be a classic example of Bauhaus architecture, and was also the location of the meeting which decided upon the Velvet Divorce that separated the Czech and Slovak republics in 1992. It is possible to visit the Villa by guided tour; tours are led hourly and must be booked in advance (see the Villa website at http://www.tugendhat.eu/). The building reopened in March 2012 after an extensive restoration, to international acclaim (http://www.guardian.co.uk/artanddesign/2012/apr/06/villa-tugendhat-mies-brno-moore).
