This paper evaluates yet not published findings of Renaissance stove tiles with a dolphin motif from the archaeological excavation in the area of the former Metropol Hotel in the Brno suburb of Dornych. We will try to compare these stove tiles with already published Brno specimens, with fragments of stove tiles from the fort in Bošovice near Brno and with recently published pieces from the research of Vlasta Fialová at the fort in Kralice nad Oslavou. Analogies from Moravia, Silesia and neighbouring countries contribute to dating and style classification. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
