  • Telč is a town in southern Moravia, near Jihlava, in the Czech Republic.  The Gothic castle of Telč was built in the second half of the 14th century by the lords of Hradec. 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'oeil and chiaroscuro paintings in 1553. The counter-reformation brought the Jesuits to the town, who built the church of Name of Jesus in 1666-1667, 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. The town was founded in the 13th century as a royal water fort on the crossroads of busy merchant routes between Bohemia, Moravia and Austria. <br />
The most significant sight is the town square, a unique complex of long urban plaza with well-conserved Renaissance and Baroque houses with high gables and arcades; since 1992 all of this has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Renaissance market place. Its triangular market place possesses great beauty and harmony as well as great cultural importance, surrounded as it is by intact and well-preserved Renaissance buildings with a dazzling variety of facades. The town is located near the south-western border between Moravia and Bohemia, Vysocina Region. The houses in the market place, with facades from various periods, are basically Renaissance and conform to a standard plan. In 1979 Werner Herzog filmed the movie Woyzeck in Telč.  The extensive castle complex in Telč is a real pearl of Moravian Renaissance architecture. Since 1992, along with the historic city center, it has been registered on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

  • Telč (tysk: Teltsch) er en by i Tsjekkia. Gamlebyen ble i 1992 oppført på UNESCOs verdensarvliste. Byen ligger ved foten av de Böhmisk-Mähriske høylandene omgitt av sjøer og ved utløpet av elven Telčský potok hvor denne renner ut i Taya. Bygningene i Telc som ligger på en høyde i landskapet, var opprinnelig oppført i tre.[2] Etter en brann sent på 1300-tallet, ble byen gjenoppført i steinmateriale og ytterligere vernet mot brann ved at den ble omgitt av kunstige sjøer. Stedets gotiske slott ble gjenreist i høygotisk stil sent på 1400-tallet. Unesco:  Historic Centre of Telč. The houses in Telc, which stands on a hilltop, were originally built of wood. After a fire in the late 14th century, the town was rebuilt in stone, surrounded by walls and further strengthened by a network of artificial ponds. The town's Gothic castle was reconstructed in High Gothic style in the late 15th century. <br />
Outstanding Universal Value. <br />
The town of Telč is located near the southwestern border between Moravia and Bohemia, in the Vysočina Region of the Czech Republic. It is situated in a region which was thickly forested until the 13th century. The property consists of the historic town centre, with the castle situated in the middle, and of two bodies of water, originally having a defensive function. <br />
The origins of the settlement are unclear: there was an early medieval settlement at Staré Město to the south-east of the present town, but there is no mention of Telč in documentary records before 1333-1335, when reference is made to the existence there of an important castle (and presumably also a church and settlement). The town of Telč, whose area covers 36 ha, was probably founded in the mid 14th century. The town itself is of special importance since it was founded on purpose to gain political and economic control over an area where there were deep forests in the 13th and 14th centuries. <br />

  • Borgen  Roštejn (tysk Rosenstein), seks kilometer nord for Telč i Jihlava District i Tsjekkia. Takket være sin beliggenhet på en steinete odde, det gir en god oversikt over de bøhmisk-moraviske høysletter.<br />
Slottet ble bygget etter 1339 av brødrene Meinhard og Ulrich IV. Av Neuhaus. Først Viscount var Martin av Mutice (Mareš z Mutic). I det 16. århundre, ble slottet Zacharias av Hradec ombygd til en jakthytte. Veggene i hallen er dekorert med våpenskjold fra det 17. århundre. Det 53 meter høye heptagonal gotiske tårnet er tilgjengelig. Roštejn Castle. The Late-Gothic castle rises above a rocky hill in the romantic forests near the village of Doupě. It has gone through extensive repairs. From 2020 season in all its splendour. Roštejn was built by the Lords of Hradec in the first half of the 14 th century. This late-Gothic castle, which rises above the romantic landscape of Javořické vrchy, was built by the Lords of Hradec. The original name of the castle, Rosenstein, corresponds to the coat of arms of the family, which bears a five-petalled rose. The most signifiant redevelopment happened under Zachariáš of Hradec when a Renaissance hunting castle surrounded by a large game park appeared.<br />
<br />
Despite its turbulent history, the castle has remained true to its hunting origins. This is evidenced by the recently opened interactive exhibition focused on nature, hunting and game management and featuring a unique botanical hall. The Chapel of St. Eustache and an atypical seven-sided tower offering a unique view of the surrounding forests are open to the public.
