Two brick and one concrete water tank, unparalleled in Europe, whose visit will take your breath away!

This Brno “must see” is located under the unassuming grassy area of a revitalized park on Žlutý kopec and offers an experience akin to that of another world from long-lost civilizations.

Three colossal underground tanks are a unique architectural monument and a testament to exceptional technical industrial architecture in its pristine form.

You can visit the Žlutý kopec Water Tanks individually, as part of guided tours, during various cultural events, or even rent them out.

Thanks to the WatertanksArt project, in which TIC BRNO cooperates with leading Brno, Czech and international artists, you can enjoy great concerts, performances, visual shows and site specific. Keep an eye on the calendar of events, which will give you a reason to come back again and again. The Water Tanks Brno will also become your favourite place for art.
