Brno Coffee
Discovering Coffee in Brno
The Brno coffee culture developed alongside the Viennese coffee houses in
the 18th century and shares some similar origins. As Brno was part of
the Habsburg Monarchy, it was heavily influenced by Austrian culture.
Many coffee houses put a mark on the daily lives of Brno’s people but
also impacted city layouts & architecture. After the collapse of the
Habsburg Empire during WWI, Czech culture took over and steered Brno’s
coffee culture in a more functional direction. There are only a handful
of traditional coffee houses left today in Brno as most establishments
got lost during WWII.
