Sněmovní náměstí

Directions

Sněmovní náměstí (Diet Square) spreads out in front of the Archbishop's Chateau and borders the Chateau Garden. Its name recalls the Imperial Diet, whose deputies met in the chateau in 1848–1849.

The square is also home to the Mill Gate (Mlýnská brána), the last surviving town gate of Kroměříž.
