Villa at 6, Purkyňova st.
Musicologist Miloš Štědroň revealed the address of the house where Kundera was born several weeks ago in an interview – it is located in quarter Královo Pole, at 6 Purkyňova st., next do Dobrák swimming pool and quite near the complex of University of Technology and IBM.
It is just an ordinary house, not belonging to Kundera’s family anymore (according to the land register) – but I think it is just a nice trivia about Brno.

Hi MIchal,
I was in Brno last year and wrote a piece about the city and the Milan Kundera connection on my site http://www.literaryplaces.com with a reference to your post about the author’s former home.
Great blog for a great city.
all/best,
