After the assasination of the last Przemyslid Wenceslas III in 1306, fights for the Bohemian throne ensued. A new royal dynasty, the Luxembourgs, took over in 1310 the Czech lands. In 1349, king Charles handed over the Moravian markgrave to his younger brother John (ruled up to 1375). This period brought prosperity to Moravia and the city of Brno, which obtained many privileges and saw the really economic and cultural heyday. The construction of the town and ist suburbs continued. As early as the mid-14th century, the city reached 8-9000 inhabitants. High Gothic material and spiritual culture has fully developed. Houses were built mostly from stone and bricks, construction of churches and monasteries continued.Close to the northhern city wall, the Augustinian monastery was founded as the ancestral foundation of the Luxembourgs in 1350. However, at the end of the 14th century, the symptoms of the crisis began to appear, fighting between the sons of Margrave John was the beginning.
