Olomouc
4 things to see
Olomouc is a Moravian university city built around a UNESCO-listed Holy Trinity Column, with a lively student atmosphere and prices that make Prague look expensive. The squares, fountains, and old town are all free to wander, and the student population keeps food and drink cheap. It pairs easily with Brno on a Moravian leg and works as a low-cost alternative base to Prague.

Holy Trinity Column
A UNESCO-listed Baroque plague column rising 35 meters in the Upper Square, the largest such column in Central Europe. Free to admire and the defining landmark of this underrated Moravian city.

A Gothic town hall with a 15th-century astronomical clock (redesigned in Soviet-era style) and a loggia overlooking the main square. The exterior and clock display are free, with the tower climbable for a small fee.
Saint Wenceslas Cathedral
A Neo-Gothic cathedral with the tallest church spire in Moravia, set in a quiet square away from the main tourist flow. Free to enter, and the surrounding bishop's grounds make for a peaceful walk.
