Oslednice, Observation tower in Telč, Czech Republic.
Oslednice is an observation tower in the historic city of Telč with a height of 36 meters and multiple viewing platforms. From the top, visitors can see across the city and the surrounding countryside with its fields and forests.
A 16-metre wooden lookout tower was built on Oslednice in 1898. The present 36-metre steel tower, erected by the mobile operator Paegas (now T-Mobile), opened on 25 March 2000. The Czech Tourist Club runs it, and an identical tower was built a year later at Vysoká near Kutná Hora for the Oskar network.
The tower is run by the Klub českých turistů (Czech Tourist Club), and its name comes from the hill Oslednice at 557 m. From the 31 m gallery, hikers look toward Javořice, the highest point of the Českomoravská vrchovina, and Roštejn Castle.
The tower stands on Oslednice hill (557 m) at the southeastern edge of Telč; the walk up from town is short and the path is marked. The viewing gallery sits at 31 m and is reached by stairs. Sturdy shoes help on the climb, and the open gallery is exposed to wind.
The tower offers a rare elevated view of the Vysočina Region, where visitors can see the shape of rolling hills and forest patches from above. This height provides a perspective that ground-level walks cannot offer, revealing the landscape's natural patterns.
