The Brno Town Council (Magistrat mesta Brna) you can find in historically valuable Renaissance-Baroque complex of so called New town hall (Nová radnice), former building of Moravian regional government, on Dominikánské Square.
Since its completion in the 13th century and after Renaissance rebuilding in 16th century the former Dominican monastery served the needs of the Moravian estates representation. It was place, where the provincial assemblies and courts held their sessions. During the 18th century the complex underwent great Baroque reshaping. Today the New Town Hall is a seat of the Brno mayor and the municipal council. The visitors to the complex should not miss the opportunity to see the architecture of medieval cloister, historic portals and the representative halls.
