About location

Mikulov straddles the meeting of the Pavlov Hills and the South Moravian lowlands in the South Moravian Region, a position near Austria that shaped it into a wine town and trading centre. Its expansive main square is framed by historic townhouses, while Mikulov Castle rises on Castle Hill above the centre. Rebuilt in Baroque form after a fire in 1719, the castle now houses the Regional Museum in Mikulov. The town was also a major centre of Jewish life in Moravia; its former Jewish quarter, synagogue and cemetery remain important parts of its identity. Vineyards on the surrounding slopes link Mikulov to the Pálava wine-growing area and protected landscape.
