Třebíč

A quiet Moravian town whose Jewish Quarter, one of the best preserved in Europe, its large Jewish cemetery and the Romanesque-Gothic Basilica of St Procopius were listed together by UNESCO in 2003. Two synagogues and over a hundred old houses line the lanes by the Jihlava river. Telč, another UNESCO town with a Renaissance square of arcaded houses, is about 35 km west, and the two make a full day from Brno, about 1 h 15 away by train.
