History

[edit]
Church of Saint Martin

The first written mention is from 1349, when the Church of Saint Martin was documented. Třešť was originally a small parish village on the crossroads of two trade routes. Since its establishment, the Jewish community has been in Třešť. [3]

Třešť was known for crafts and in the 19th century for its industry. The production of furniture and matches was established and textile and engineering industry flourish. The industrial boom was the work of Jewish entrepreneurs. The Jewish community declined in the first half of the 20th century, and disappeared as a result of the Holocaust.[3]

Until 1901, Třešť was the largest market town in Moravia. In 1901, it was promoted to a town.[3]
