Having seen many historic town squares in Europe, I have to say that the one in Telc is one of the most beautiful. The WH site consists of the main square, the adjacent streets of the old town, the castle and the surrounding fish ponds. The main square is a coherent complex in the form of an elongated triangle. All the well-conserved Baroque and Renaissance houses have high gables and arcades. It was a great pleasure to stroll around the square and under the arcades and to study in detail the sgraffiti and the colourful decoration of the facades. We skipped a guided tour through the interior of the castle, we visited only the courtyard and the nice garden. And we went for a walk in the twilight around the fish ponds, which was wonderful after a rich Czech dinner and a few cold Pilsner beer. We stayed overnight in Telc and rented a room in a private house at the town square (it was really cheap, 15 Euro for one double room). That was a quite good choice, the atmosphere changed in the evening when most of the tourists were gone. The main square was only dimly lit and we felt almost like set back in time - if there were no parked cars. The view from our window in the morning (photo) has finally made ​​Telc a highlight of our trip to Moravia.
