The Venus of Dolní Věstonice is a ceramic Venus figurine. Its age is estimated at 25,000 to 29,000 years, making it the Gravettian period. It is thus the oldest known ceramic figurine in the world. Its discovery refuted the previous assumption that ceramics were unknown in the Paleolithic period. The figurine is one of the oldest ceramic products and is made of loess clay, tempered with animal bone meal to prevent shrinkage cracks. It measures 11.1 cm high, 4.3 cm wide, and 2.7 cm thick. The Venus is housed in the Moravian Museum in Brno, but for conservation reasons, only a copy is exhibited on the second floor.

Excellent small archeological museum featuring various neolithic tools and weapons, Venus figures, mammut findings, and even an archeological excavation that has merely been covered for protection from the erosion.
