Trebic: Charles Square
Built around a Benedictine monastery on the Jihlava River, Třebíč grew into an important regional centre in the Vysočina highlands. Charles Square forms the heart of its historic town, a long market space framed by burgher houses and overlooked by the Town Tower beside St Martin’s Church. The square has long served as Třebíč’s principal civic and commercial space. Beyond the centre, the town is internationally known for its Jewish Quarter and the Basilica of St Procopius, inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2003. This compact Moravian town brings together a working urban centre, medieval street patterns and monuments reflecting centuries of Jewish and Christian life.
