City tower, Třebíč
City tower, Třebíč, Medieval tower near Karlovo Square, Czech Republic
The City Tower of Třebíč is a stone structure rising 75 meters above the old town and directly connected to Saint Martin's Church. It features the country's largest mounted tower clock faces and remains a defining landmark.
The tower was built in 1335 under Margrave Charles and later survived a destruction attempt by soldiers of Hungarian King Matthias Corvinus in 1468. This survival made it one of the lasting elements of the city's medieval structure.
The tower served as a link between church and townspeople, with watchmen signaling from above to announce important moments. The horn-blowing tradition used different directions to reach all quarters of the settlement.
You can climb 162 steps to reach a 35-meter-high observation gallery with views across the town and its monuments. From this vantage point, the layout of the medieval settlement and its UNESCO-protected sites become clear.
The interior holds memorial bells from Jejkov's fraternal congregation, including a special bell called Svatopluk. This bell once rang specifically for religious dissenters, preserving a unique chapter of local spiritual heritage.
