A railway passes through the territory of Předklášteří, but there are no train stations. The municipality is served by the station in neighbouring Tišnov.

The convent is often used to hold concerts of sacred music.

The main historical and tourist attraction is the Porta coeli Convent, a women's monastery from the mid-13th-century with unique architecture. For its value, it is protected as a national cultural monument.

A significant landmark is also the Church of the Holy Trinity. It was built in the late Gothic style. Next to the church is a Baroque mortuary from around 1700.
