"Mintmaster’s cellar (Mincmistrovský sklep)...
...is a designation of medieval cellars discovered during the excavations carried out in the underground of Dominican Square in 1999. The renovated cellars of the New Town Hall were connected with them later. The system of cellars thus created houses a permanent exhibition of minting and was opened under the project “Opening of the Underground to the Public” in 2010. The exhibition illustrates the nearly forgotten craft of minting in Brno and Moravia. The house in Dominican Square is closely connected with Bruno, the first documented royal mintmaster in Brno, whom the visitors can meet in the cellar striking coins like centuries ago."
