In the first half of the 13h century the wolrd-famous Romanesque-Gothic Basilica of St. Prokop was built in 1335 the settlement of Třebíč was promoted to town status.
The periods of town and monastery development alternated with periods of stagnation and decay during the following centuries. The turning point in the rich history of the town was in 1468 when it was nearly destroyed during the Czech and Hungarian War. Afterwards the monastery estate was passed over to secular manorial nobility. At present the reconstructed town is one of the largest settlements of the Highlands.
