St. Procopius Basilica in Třebíč is an impressive Romanesque-Gothic church and one of the city's most significant structures. It was built in the 13th century on the site of a Benedictine monastery that had already been founded in the 12th century. The basilica combines Romanesque and Gothic elements and is particularly known for its powerful architecture, the large west portal, and the artfully designed crypt. Inside, there are valuable historical building components and artworks. The crypt with its massive columns and vaults is particularly impressive. The basilica demonstrates the importance of the medieval monastery for the development of Třebíč and is an important testament to European architectural history. Together with the Jewish Quarter and the Jewish Cemetery, St. Procopius Basilica was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2003. It is particularly exceptional that the Christian and Jewish monuments are located so close to each other in Třebíč. This reminds the city of the centuries-long shared history of different religious and cultural communities. Today, St. Procopius Basilica is one of Třebíč's most important sights and a popular destination for visitors interested in history, architecture, and culture.

The old town of Třebíč in the Czech Republic is a particularly worthwhile historical site. The town is famous above all for its exceptionally well-preserved Jewish Quarter, St. Procopius Basilica, and the old Jewish cemetery. These important historical buildings and the Jewish Quarter have been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 2003. The Jewish Quarter of Třebíč is one of the best-preserved Jewish Quarters in Europe. The narrow alleys, historic houses, and small passageways give a good impression of what life was like for the Jewish population in the past. Particularly worth seeing is the Rear Synagogue, which can be visited today. Also interesting is the old Jewish cemetery with several thousand gravestones, the oldest part of which dates back to the 15th century. Not far from the Jewish Quarter is the impressive St. Procopius Basilica. It was built in the 13th century and combines Romanesque and Gothic elements. Another landmark of the town is the Town Tower on Martinské náměstí, from which you can enjoy a beautiful view over Třebíč. The so-called Painted House on Karlovo náměstí also stands out with its richly decorated facade. For a tour of the old town, you should allow about two to three hours. It is particularly nice to first stroll through the Jewish Quarter, then visit the Jewish cemetery, and afterwards proceed to St. Procopius Basilica. The special feature of Třebíč is the immediate proximity of Jewish and Christian historical testimonies, which together show the unique history and cultural diversity of the town.

Simultaneously with the construction of the chateau buildings between 1700 and 1737, the chateau garden was created in the French style. Across the Rokytná River, on whose banks lies the park, a large section continues the English style. During its most famous period, Jaroměřice nad Rokytnou was a center of cultural life, organized here by Jan Adam Questenberk (1678–1752). At that time, Jaroměřice boasted a rich library, gallery, theater, and its own chapel. The famous Czech composer František Václav Míča, author of the first Czech opera, "The Founding of Jaroměřice," was also the chapel master.

The Baroque chateau in Jaroměřice nad Rokytnou is one of the most magnificent architectural masterpieces of the first half of the 18th century in the Czech Republic and Europe. It is one of the most frequently visited monuments in the region. The original medieval fortress was rebuilt in the late 16th century into a Renaissance chateau, which remains preserved to this day. The chateau was rebuilt in the Baroque style during the reign of the Questenberk family – between 1700 and 1737. The design for the reconstruction was developed by the Austrian architect J. Prandtauer. Simultaneously with the construction of the buildings, a French-style chateau garden was created.
