spilberk castle

The castle is nice for a afternoon walk, offers amazing view of the city, exhibitions, you can visit its dungeons, learn about history and in summer it offers Shakespearean theatre nights.

A great place to enjoy a little bit of Brno history, enjoy the view of the city and experience the terrors of the old underground prison!

There is a very nice view from the castle top, and many of the (temporary) exhibitions are really excellent. The surrounding park and the hilltop scenery are great too. The castle as such is nothing special (considering other places in Europe :-), the dungeons are OK, not really exciting. The food festival at the castle, summer theatre plays, etc. are great.

Nice view, but very long and boring exhibitions.The casamates just empty floors under the ground (with 4-5 vax statue), the exhibitions aren't well integrated (a lot of different themes) and boring:(

We only visited the dungeons and not the actual museum and exhibitions. They were huge and quite interesting. The lighting was not so good - it was difficult to read signs and guide book. The view from the castle are very good.

Really enjoyed our visit and even if you decide not to go into the castle then the views of Brno are amazing. We particularly enjoyed the classmates! If you're in Brno don't miss it!

The castle is well worth a visit. Great for exercise as it is up hill through a stunning park. Beautiful views when you get there. I guess you could be lazy and drive up, but honestly, the walk is far more rewarding :) We did not have the time to take the tour inside (not sure if it was open anyway) but even exploring the outside was really nice and I recommend it.

Spilberk is not only a castle, there is also a museum inside, and it is quite nice. You can see the prisions from the older building and learn about the history of the city and the castle. Also, the view from the castle is breathtaking. It is a program you can do with friends, family or partner. It is also possible to rest around the castle, reading a nice book, having a picnic or just meeting friends for a talk,

My first impression of this building is that it didn't look as a classic castle at all, and indeed - it was renovated and transformed into a civil building during the Austro-Hungarian era. The exhibitions were mainly in Czech - occasionally German and English. The best part is to just walk in the grounds of the castle and appreciate the city views. Save the entrance free, unless you have a good reason or time to visit the interior.

Have been there more times, with family, friends, etc. Always a good point for a tour for the weekend, or have some fun. The nicest view to the city. Must see.

Walking around the castle was one of my favourite parts of our trip. With autumn in full swing, the leaves gave the whole castle a speck of colour. A very nice and peaceful park surrounding the castle, fantastic view!

What could have been a great tourist attraction is actually quite a let down. There are no notices or boards explaining anything, lots of empty rooms and it only takes 15 mins to walk around. We reached the exit soon after entering and asked ourselves "was that it ?". This is the first time I've not given a good review on TA but honestly this attraction could and should do far more to improve the customer experience.

We were given laminated sheets & we walked around Rampaths – for prisoners. The castle contained museum and exhibits = gave it a miss.

The castle is newly restored, if you don´t want to spend money for the entrance fee, there is still a lot of things to see fo free. Wonderful view of the city, nice castla courtyard with a chime playing every hour. Inside the castle there are many interesting expositions - you can start in the cellars where castle dungeon is found. In the upper floors there are various exhibitions and a castle gallery. It´s worth seeing - it´s a place full of history.
