Postcards from Telc |
Telc has one of the most beautiful town squares in Bohemia. A series of ponds surrounds the historic centre and the picture to the left shows Stephany beside one of them at the main entrance to the town. The origins of the town go back to the 13th century. The boom years of Telc came in the 16th century, when it was built in Renaissance style. The castle was converted to a chateau and the burgher houses around the square were decorated and rebuilt in the Renaissance style |
