Description was written before the event

The Light Up Tugendhat light show marks the culmination of this year's celebrations of 25 years since the villa was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. For this occasion, the villa's garden will be connected with the neighbouring gardens of the Löw-Beer and Arnold villas.

About the venue: Vila Tugendhat

Villa Tugendhat is a functionalist villa in Brno's Černá Pole district, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and built in 1929–1930 for Greta and Fritz Tugendhat. Since 2001 it has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as the only example of modern architecture in the Czech Republic to receive this distinction. The interior features an onyx wall, Italian travertine, and veneers of exotic woods; the technical basement showcases the house's innovative systems. Since 1994 the villa has been open to the public as a museum administered by the Brno City Museum.
