Bus Hire in Olomouc

Olomouc is Moravia's historic capital, a university city whose Baroque fountains, monumental column, and intact Renaissance town squares have earned it comparison with Krakow and Vienna. The Holy Trinity Column (UNESCO), standing 35 metres tall in the Upper Square (Horni namesti), is among the finest examples of Baroque religious sculpture in Central Europe. The city's 14 Baroque fountains (the second-largest collection in the Czech Republic after Kutna Hora's) give walking tours a distinctive rhythm.

Olomouc is 75 km from Brno and 275 km from Prague, making it a natural stop on a Moravia touring itinerary. The Premyslid Palace and Olomouc Astronomical Clock are within the compact historic centre.

Holy Trinity Column and Upper Square

The Upper Square (Horni namesti) is the centrepiece of Olomouc, with the Holy Trinity Column, the Astronomical Clock (a Socialist Realist redecoration of a 15th-century original), and the Town Hall in a compact walkable zone. Coaches park on Legionarska Street, a short walk from the square.

Baroque Fountains Walking Tour

Olomouc's 14 Baroque fountains -- including the Caesar Fountain, the Hercules Fountain, and the Neptune Fountain -- are distributed across the historic centre and Lower Square. A guided fountain walk takes 90 to 120 minutes and covers all the main squares. Minibuses handle this better than full coaches in the inner city.

Moravia Wine and Countryside (35 to 60 km)

The South Moravian wine trail begins at Kromeriz (30 km south-east, UNESCO archiepiscopal gardens) and extends to Uherskehradiste (55 km south-east) and the Slovacko folk wine villages. These are popular additions for heritage groups combining Olomouc with Brno on a Moravia circuit.
