Local History and Architectural Heritage

The first written mention of Třebelovice dates from 1365. In 1609, the village became part of the Jemnice estate. The dates mark different milestones: first the earliest written mention, and later the village’s incorporation into the estate. This provides a clear chronology for understanding the local history.

In the center of Třebelovice stands the Chapel of St. Florian, a protected immovable cultural monument. House No. 106 in Třebelovice is an example of folk architecture from the late 18th century. The chapel represents religious architecture, while the house represents folk architecture from this period.

The wayside shrine in Třebelovice has a Tuscan column with entasis. The column supports a four-sided shrine topped by a roof shaped like a truncated pyramid. Entasis is the slight swelling of a column shaft and helps describe the column’s profile more precisely. Třebelovice also has a memorial to local residents who fell in the First World War.
