The villa of architect Dušan Samo Jurkovič (1868–1947), built in 1906 on a forested slope above the Svratka River in Brno-Žabovřesky. The unique building combines influences of the British cottage style, Viennese Secession, and Central European folk architecture. Since 2011 it has been managed by the Moravian Gallery Brno and is open to the public as an architectural monument with a permanent exhibition on Jurkovič's work and contemporary design exhibitions.
