Brno is the second largest city of the Czech Rupublic situated in the southern Moravia. Brno was the first European town to utilise the electric bulb to illuminate a theatre. It was Brno where Gregor Mendel formulated his laws of genetics. Here Victor Kaplan designed the first water turbine and Leoš Janácek composed his musical works. Bohuslav Fuchs, Mies van der Rohe, Arnost Vízner and others built examples of modern architecture in Brno and Milan Kundera wrote his first novels here.
