Třeboň

Třeboň is a town in South Bohemia situated in a basin near the Lužnice River and surrounded by artificial lakes and woodlands. The center displays Gothic and Renaissance buildings with fortified houses and churches spanning different periods.

The town received its first written mention in 1341 and later became important under the Rosenberg family. That family supported monastery construction and fish farming, which shaped the lakes and waterways.

The medieval core displays civic buildings and churches surrounding the main square, where local craft traditions remain visible in daily life. The location between lakes has shaped how residents live, reflected in customs tied to fishing and water management.

The town is easy to explore on foot, with most sights concentrated in or near the center. Visitors will find thermal baths and wellness facilities focused on relaxation and well-being.

A remarkably large lake called Rožmberk lies here and connects to other water bodies through a medieval canal system. This system shows how cleverly early residents used the land and water.
