Trebon boasts one of the best-preserved historical city centers in the entire country. Among the noteworthy buildings are especially the Trebon Castle (featuring a special kitchen dedicated to cooking exclusively for dogs!) and the elaborate Schwarzenberg Tomb, where members of the aristocratic family which owned much of the surrounding area are buried.

The town of Jindrichuv Hradec, another splendid historic town with an immense castle, is only about half an hour drive away.

Another nearby town is Ceske Budejovice, known also as home of the original Budweiser beer. (Budweis is the German version of the town's name.)br>
The Hluboka Castle is among the most impressive in the Czech Republic, some 45 minutes away by car.
