Telč, Renaissance town in Jihlava District, Czech Republic
The central square of Telč displays rows of Renaissance houses with arcades, pastel-colored facades, and decorated gables along all four sides.
Following a devastating fire in 1530, Lord Zachariáš of Hradec transformed Telč by rebuilding the stone castle and reconstructing the town center in Renaissance style.
The interconnected houses in Telč present Gothic and Renaissance features, earning the town recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992.
The tourist information center at Náměstí Zachariáše z Hradce provides maps, bicycle rentals, and guidance for exploring the three surrounding ponds.
The medieval layout of Telč includes a network of fishponds that form natural boundaries around the historic center, creating water fortification elements.
