Photographer’s Note

For my 600th upload I choose the beautiful Old town of Telc. I remember that I was thinking about to rest on this white bench instead to take a picture. I do both.

Telc is a town in Southern Moravia and one of the main tourist attractions of the Czech Republic. It was founded in the 14th century. The town is built on a little hill encircled by three fishponds. The beautiful porticated Gothic and Renaissance houses on the square are conformed on a standard plan and have nice Baroque or Rococo or classical façades, reconstructed also after a fire in the 19th century, decorated or painted, and all of almost the same height; they were damaged by a war in 1359 and were wooden until a fire in 1386, when were reconstructed in stone, and then in Renaissance style after a second fire.
