Historic Centre of Telc
I and the professional driver will pick you up at 8 am in a lobby of the hotel you are staying in. This tour takes 10 hours and it is provided by A/C private car or minivan. Bottled water will be available in the car for you free of charge. It takes about 2 hours to reach Telč town from Prague by car. Telč boasts one of most beautiful town squares in the Czech Republic – if not all of Central Europe. The heart of the elongated town square is a Baroque Marian column and two fountains, and the square´s perimeter is lined with historically valuable arcaded town houses. In 1963 Vojtěch Jasný made the film The Cassandra Cat in Telč. In 1979 Werner Herzog filmed the movie Woyzeck in Telč. Multiple Czech fairy tale movies were filmed in the Telč Castle, most known are The Proud Princess (1952) or Z pekla štěstí (1999).
State Chateau Telc (Statni zamek Telc)
The Gothic castle was built in the second half of the 14th century. At the end of the 15th century the castle fortifications were strengthened and a new gate-tower built. In the middle of the 16th century the medieval castle no longer satisfied Renaissance nobleman Zachariáš of Hradec, who had the castle altered in the Renaissance style. The ground floor was vaulted anew, the façade decorated with sgraffito, and the state apartments and living quarters received stucco ornamentation together with trompe-l'œil and chiaroscuro paintings in 1553. The counter-reformation brought the Jesuits to the town, who built the church of Name of Jesus in 1666–67, according to the plans of Domenico Orsi. The column of the Virgin and the fountain in the centre of the square date from the 18th century.
Marian (Plague) Column stands in the upper part of the square. It was built in the years 1716 - 1720 from the legacy of townswoman Zuzana Hodová (she lived in the house no. 52) who donated 1000 gold pieces. Author of the column is sculptor David Lipart of Brtnice and his assistant František Neuwirt. The pedestal of the column holds the saints - John of Nepomuk, James, Francis Xaverius, Rochus, Sebestian and the Guardian Angel. In the cave you can see St. Rosalie and from teh second side Mary Magdalene. On the top of the greyish column stands the Virgin Mary on the globe.
Rozhledna Telc
The watch tower is about a mile walk from the town center only. It offers views of the town you hardly get from the town towers. A small charge (50 CZK) has to be paid.
Trebic
Třebíč is a town in the Moravian part of the Vysočina Region of the Czech Republic. Třebíč is a regional centre with a population of approximately 36,000. It is the administrative capital of the Třebíč District. In the age of its expansion, Třebíč was the third most important town in Moravia. The population growth started after World War II. There are several well-known tourist sights in the town. The Jewish Quarter and St. Procopius Basilica are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Jewish Quarter and St Procopius' Basilica in Trebic
The Jewish Quarter is one of the best preserved Jewish ghettos in Europe. Therefore, it was listed in 2003 (together with the Jewish Cemetery and the St. Procopius Basilica in Třebíč) in the UNESCO World Heritage List and it is the only Jewish monument outside Israel specifically placed on the List. The Jewish Quarter is situated on the north bank of the River Jihlava, surrounded by rocks and the river. In the Jewish Quarter there are 123 houses, two synagogues and a Jewish cemetery which isn't in the area of the town. All original Jewish inhabitants (in 1890 there lived nearly 1,500 Jews, but in the 1930s only 300 of them were of Jewish faith) were deported and murdered in concentration camps by Nazis during World War II. Only ten of them came back after the war. Therefore, many buildings of the Jewish town (e. g. the town hall, rabbi's office, hospital, poorhouse or school) do not serve their original purpose any more and the houses are now owned by people of non-Jewish faith.
The Jewish Quarter and St Procopius' Basilica in Trebic
St. Procopius Basilica is a Romanesque-Gothic Christian church built on the site of the original Virgin Mary's Chapel of the Benedictine monastery in 1240–1280. It became a national cultural monument in 2002 as a part of the "monastery with St. Procopius church". The basilica together with the Jewish Quarter in Třebíč were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2003. The basilica was originally dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. Saint Procopius became the Patron saint of the basilica on the quincentenary his canonization in 1704. Jan Karel, Count of Valdštejn established a castle chapel of St. Procopius from the presbytery of the basilica. As of 2013, the renovated Třebíč castle is a museum adjacent to the Basilica.
For the first time ever, the entire building was reconstructed thus creating space for four thematically independent exhibitions, which focus in different ways on topics linked with the town of Třebíč and the wider region. These include the mineralogical exhibition entitled The World of Inanimate Nature, the monastery exhibition The World of Portals and Gates, the castle tour The Waldstein Family at Třebíč and finally, the museum exhibition entitled People. Places. Destinies. In addition to tours that offer a deeper understanding of the region and the museum’s collections, you can also visit short-term exhibitions in the former castle stables as well as concerts and lectures in the Stone Hall. Educational programmes are prepared for schools on a regular basis involving modern technologies both in the exhibitions as well as in a multi-function hall and study. The reconstruction also made the premises fully accessible to the disabled visitors.
