Jevíčko, Medieval municipality in Svitavy District, Czech Republic
Jevíčko is a town with medieval roots in the Svitavy region, featuring preserved town walls and a central square filled with historical buildings. It spreads across varied terrain and maintains the layout and character of a typical small Czech settlement from that era.
The town was founded in 1249 and received royal town status from King Ottokar II in 1258, a designation it kept until 1499. This long period as a town shaped how the settlement developed and its importance in the region.
The former Augustinian monastery in the center now houses the Town Museum, documenting how the region developed across different periods. Visitors can see how community life evolved from medieval times to today through the objects and stories displayed here.
The town sits southeast of Svitavy and north of Brno, making it easy to reach for day trips or longer visits. Visitors can explore the Town Museum and other historical sites here on foot.
The Gothic town tower was rebuilt in 1593 and today offers views over the Boskovice Furrow, a notable geological depression in the landscape. This tower stands as a visible reminder of how the town changed and adapted over the centuries.
