Jihlava Essentials

Jihlava, the center of the Vysočina region, features a diverse range of historical and modern landmarks. The city is defined by its extensive medieval underground labyrinth, the 13th-century Gate of the Mother of God, and the architectural contrast of the communist-era Prior department store. Cultural highlights include the legacy of composer Gustav Mahler and the Regional Gallery of the Highlands. Beyond history, the city offers a highly-rated, barrier-free zoo and the Vodní ráj water park, combining heritage with family-oriented recreation.
