Montowna: Work, living, and leisure under one roof

Imagine this: in the morning, you get ready and walk from your apartment to the office in the other part of the building. On the way, you drop your child off at nursery, pick up breakfast at the supermarket, and grab a coffee at the local café. After work, you pop into the gym or recharge your batteries on the green roof with a magnificent view of Brno. And you can do all this within a single building and in just a few minutes. No, this isn't a scene from an American movie. It's a reality that is currently taking shape in the southern part of Nová Zbrojovka. And it's called Montowna.

Montowna: Work, living, and leisure under one roof

Montowna – a house in the city, a city in a house

Montowna is not just another office building or apartment building. We are proud to present a new generation of multifunctional buildings – where living, working, shopping, and leisure spaces come together under one roof. Seven floors of modern architecture designed with sustainability, functionality, and the future in mind.

Inside, you will find 13,300 m² of space divided between stylish rental apartments in one part and flexible offices and a diverse range of shops and services in the other. Lovers of greenery will find what they are looking for here – a green roof terrace with a community space and a green courtyard offer an oasis of peace and a space to relax and recharge your batteries. In short, it is a place with above-standard civic amenities where life is simply good. And yes, dogs are welcome here too.

A building full of endless possibilities for your business, work, life, and leisure time

Montowna will offer ideal rental housing for professionals, students, couples, and commuters

Spacious, stylish, and sustainable offices 

If you are looking for a flexible and stylish place to do business that also thinks responsibly, Montowna will impress you. It offers 7,200 m² of Class A office space, with a typical floor size of 1,200 m², high ceilings (up to 2,800 mm) and plenty of daylight thanks to large windows. High-quality lighting, modern technology, and acoustic elements are a matter of course. The smallest offices start at 20 m². Coworking and meeting rooms complement the balanced ratio of social spaces on each floor.

Comfortable and modern living 

Montowna will offer 115 rental units with thoughtful use of space. Each apartment has a balcony, kitchen, ample storage space, and a washing machine. There will be a bicycle storage room, cellars, indoor and outdoor parking, and, of course, barrier-free access

The airy and bright apartments will be partially or fully furnished, making Montowna a great choice for professionals, students, couples, and those who come to Brno for work. Whether you are looking for your first starter apartment or a place to combine work and life in one building, Montowna makes it possible.

A multifunctional building that is alive 24/7

Montowna will offer 1,317 m² of retail space divided into units ranging from 76 to 812 m². Thanks to the high foot traffic from the entire Nová Zbrojovka area, this is an exceptional business opportunity for cafés, bistros, shops, services of all kinds, and showrooms. A canteen and supermarket are planned, and you will also find lawyers and notaries here.

Units with their own facilities and barrier-free access can be combined. Entrance directly from the street or into the green courtyard will offer an ideal environment for events of various types and sizes. A modern reception with security checks will be in operation 24/7. Montowna will thus become not only a center of activity, but also a driver of the local economy. 

Interest in the premises is growing rapidly, and we are pleased to be able to reveal some specific names. Rebelbean will open a café with its own roastery, the Czech Virus Gym fitness center and the Pilates Place pilates center will provide facilities for athletes, and parents will be delighted by the Maple Bear private kindergarten. And as new interested parties continue to come forward, more will soon follow.  

The construction of Montowna will be completed in the last quarter of 2026The residential part of the building will be right next to the Hrad, while the office part will be built next to the D4.Office

A green oasis with reasonable operating costs

We are proud that this exceptionally energy-efficient building has been awarded a PENB A rating, instead of the standard B rating used in the Czech Republic. It is designed to reduce operating costs by up to 30%. How? With the help of cutting-edge technologies: heat recovery, shading, energy-efficient LED lighting, CO₂ sensors, and smart consumption control based on occupancy. 

At Nová Zbrojovka, we pride ourselves on our environmentally conscious approach. That is why there will also be blue-green elements here: green roofs, an indoor park, rainwater retention systems, photovoltaics, support for electromobility, and facilities for cyclists. Today, thinking economically means thinking green. And Montowna knows it. 

The architectural design by AFRA fits into a well-thought-out plan to revitalize Brno's largest brownfield site. Nová Zbrojovka is being created with people, the city, and the environment in mind. It is the first urban district in the Czech Republic to receive BREEAM Communities certification, proving that it is not just about buildings, but about a complex, functional urban organism that meets all sustainability criteria.

A major advantage is its fast transport connections. The Židenice train station is a short distance from Montowna, you can reach the center of Brno by public transport in a few minutes, and you can be on the highway in no time by car. Thanks to its own parking with charging stations for electric cars, you don't have to worry about traveling by car. The building will have 240 indoor and 529 outdoor parking spaces available.

Monto... what? The name for the first multifunctional building

A house in the city. A city in a house. That is Montowna – a name that embodies the story of the place and its future. It was created as an anagram of the words "town" and "montovna" – which refers to the nickname of Brno's Zbrojovka factory from the days when weapons and machines were assembled there. The name also reflects the overall vision of Nová Zbrojovka – as a place where two worlds naturally connect: modern living and a high-quality environment for work and leisure.

"There is a lot of interest in Montowna – even though the building will not be completed until the end of 2026. Rental housing is not yet available, but we are offering office and commercial space for rent, and 65% of it is already reserved. If you are considering a place in Montowna, don't hesitate to get in touch in time – whether you are an established company or a start-up," recommends Miroslav Pekník, Director of Development.

Montowna – confident on the outside, welcoming on the inside. A place where there is no need to compromise. It offers the best of city life and adds something extra: community, sustainability, and a human dimension. Like the entire Nová Zbrojovka district, this multifunctional building will richly satisfy the demanding requirements of residents for modern and sustainable living in the 21st century.
