Workshop Location

The town of Mikulov is located on South Moravia, within sight from the Czech–Austrian border, in the heart of a wine region. The place is a sought-after destination for wine lovers.

Numerous monuments include the former Liechtenstein, later Dietrichstein Castle and the Dietrichstein Tomb. Beautiful views are from the Goat Tower and from the Holly Hill. For three hundred years Mikulov was the political, religious, and cultural center of Moravian Jews. In the 16th century, the Rabbi of Moravia resided here, including Yehuda Löw ben Bezalel, the creator of the legendary Golem of Prague. The remnants of the history include the Jewish Quarter and a large Jewish Cemetery.

Mikulov lies in the southernmost tip of the Pálava Landscape Protected Area, recognized by UNESCO, dominated by the limestone Pálava Hills. We plan an excursion to the area, weather permitting.

The Venus of Dolní Věstonice, a ceramic nude female figure dated to 29,000–25,000 BCE, was discovered in a nearby paleolithic archaeological site.

Conference Costs

Full costs (including accommodation and full board) for the whole event per person are, tentatively,

standard room cheap room
double occupancy 8685 CZK (320 EUR) 7250 CZK (265 EUR)
single occupancy 10560 CZK (385 EUR) 8700 CZK (325 EUR)

Prices in EUR depend on the currency exchange ratio valid at the day of the payment. Rooms of both types have private bathrooms with shower or (exceptionally) bathtub.

The payment required from accompanying persons (defined to be people that take part in the same activities as the participants except lectures and coffee breaks) is 1600 CZK (approx 60 EUR) less than the payment required from the participants.

Please, keep us informed about any changes in the length of your stay. The hotel's cancellation fees are 31 — 50 days: 10 %, 30 — 16 days: 25 %, 15 — 4 days: 50 %, 3 — 1 days: 100 %.

All payments should be made to the hotel, in cash or by credit card. We regret that no financial support is available for this event.

Visa

Those in need of a visa to travel to the Czech Republic (EU) are kindly requested to contact the organizers as soon as possible so that we can arrange the letters of invitation. It is strongly recommended to apply for a visa well before the trip.

Travel

The arrival day is October 18 (Sunday), the departure day is October 24 (Saturday).

By air. The closest major international airport is the Vienna airport (Flughafen Wien). Once a day, there is a direct bus service from the Vienna Airport (17:00) to Mikulov u parku (18:45) and from Mikulov u parku (8:05) to the Vienna Airport (10:00). To book the tickets, visit www.eurolines.at.

Otherwise we recommend to take the bus 1187 to the railway station Wien Meidling (every half an hour) and proceed to Mikulov by train (see below).

By train. Mikulov is easy to reach by train from Břeclav (24 km). Břeclav itself is directly connected to Brno (60 km), Vienna (90 km), Prague (315 km), Warsaw (530 km) and Berlin (710 km). The distance from the Mikulov railway station to the hotel is 700 m. You may wish to consult a route planner for the journey there and back.

By car. Route E461 connecting Vienna to Brno goes through Mikulov.

The main entrance to the hotel is from the street of 22 dubna 1000/28 (GPS 48.80465 N, 16.63458 E).
