About Zachariáš of Hradec Square
Zachariáš of Hradec Square forms the centre of Telč. Houses with arcades and differing gables line an elongated space, where the façades’ design invites a walk from end to end. The historic ensemble also includes the town’s relationship with the surrounding lakes.
The Renaissance appearance of many houses coexists with renovations from other periods. The arcades provide continuity at ground level, while each façade takes on its own design on the upper floors. Fountains and a religious column are part of reading the space, without needing to turn every element into an isolated stop.
View the square from both ends and also walk along the water. Telč’s scale favors a leisurely stroll in a small area, rather than a list of long transfers. The castle is within the same core and can be visited when the internal circuit has been confirmed.
