Even the most urban corners of Olomouc hide pockets of nature for those willing to walk. Green spaces like Holy Trinity Column and Upper Square offer a breathing room between landmarks — and some of the best views you'll find anywhere in the city. Seek out quieter retreats like Baroque fountains for the calm that the busier parks can't offer.

Olomouc is known for architecture and history, but between the busy streets, spaces like Holy Trinity Column and Upper Square provide a different kind of experience — calmer, greener, and more grounded than a typical sightseeing route. Quieter spots like Baroque fountains provide the kind of rest that the main attractions cannot.
The old town is compact and centered on two main squares. Walk between them to see all six baroque fountains — about 20 minutes for the circuit.
April through October. Olomouc is pleasant year-round and far less crowded than Prague.
