Traces of Multicultural Brno - Czechs, Germans and Jews (8 June, 9.00-11.00)

Guided city tour through the broader city centre thematising the history of Brno and its multiethnic character in the 19th and 20th century.

The city of Brno was multi-ethnic in its history – it was inhabited mainly by Czechs, Germans and Jews. Most of the Jewish population disappeared from the city in 1941 and 1942 in connection with the Holocaust, the German population in 1945-1946 in connection with the forced displacement of Germans from Czechoslovakia after the end of World War II. However, traces of the city's multicultural history remain in the landscape of Brno, traces that show attentive pedestrians the city's multicultural history. The walk is supposed to inform the participants about this "memory of the city".
