Amazing museum, with very interesting and updated interactive content! You get to learn about Mendel’s brilliant mind and on the same time for the advance of biology. A must visit for any age if you are visiting Brno. PS helpful staff that offers a tour guide which you can arrange by mail or on the spot.

Suprise in Brno! Museum is about Mendels work with peas and genetics in general. We liked the Mednel biography and playfull second part of the museum. They have small coffee shop. Entrance fee is 130 kruna (6 EUR).
