Třebíč Castle, Baroque castle in Podklásteří, Czech Republic.
Třebíč Castle is a Baroque residence in Podklásteří featuring a horseshoe-shaped layout surrounded by water moats. The buildings combine medieval fortification details with later Renaissance and Baroque modifications across their facades and interiors.
The complex originated in 1101 as a Benedictine monastery and later transformed into a castle. Major reconstruction during the Renaissance and Baroque periods reshaped the entire structure into its current form.
The castle sits adjacent to Třebíč's Jewish Quarter, a UNESCO World Heritage site that demonstrates centuries of coexistence between different communities. Today the setting shows how architecture and neighborhoods shaped daily life for residents across different backgrounds.
The castle operates as a museum managed by Vysočina Museum Třebíč with rotating exhibitions for visitors. The property also offers spaces available for special events and film production use.
The castle underwent careful restoration in 2015 by Italian architects Alberto di Stefano and Eugenio Percossi, who preserved its authentic historical character. This restoration work demonstrates how modern techniques can respect the original fabric of heritage buildings.
