Vratislavský dům (Třeboň I) House

Wrocław House is a significant Renaissance property located on Masaryk Square in Trebon. It was built by a noble family of Wroclaw on the basis of an older Gothic house and during its existence it has undergone many fires, property changes and building modifications including historical and pseudorenesance interventions. Today it serves commercial and social purposes and stores a number of valuable historical details.

This Renaissance building was built in the sixteenth century in the period when in the Czech countries during the reign of Jagellonc and the beginnings of the Habsburgs, Renaissance building creativity was boiling in cities and noble mansions. The original building was built on the foundations of the older Gothic house by the noble family of Wrocław. The seventeenth century then marked the war conflicts of the Thirty Years' War, fires and subsequent post-white mountain changes in property ratios that also affected the building development of the house.

The architectural development of the building left in the building a number of documented elements reflecting in today's form. According to the historical survey, the historical elements of the whole facade were preserved side and from the first floor above the facade, including the shield, forged elements and the layout and window type. The house also has Renaissance and younger vaults of the basement and ground floor, a historic staircase including railings and stone columns and flat ceilings with faceons on the floor. Other elements are probably classicist crows and chimney system, the rest of perhaps walled peeling or portal entrance on the ground floor right in the facade, a system of walled holes and niche in the wall to the neighboring house number 85, windows with bars in the facade of both skylights in the part of the soil to the house number 85 and stone lining at the entrance to the store in the facade. The building also contains a stone portal in the back of the ground floor annex with younger doors and forging, stone stage in front of the entrance to the shop, older coating layers and plaster under the existing facade, forged curtain of the postage shield and niche with polychrome statue of the Holy Trinity in the facade to Masaryk Square. Over the centuries, the house has undergone several reconstructions, with a historic reconstruction taking place in the late nineteenth century and a pseudorenesance shield at the beginning of the twentieth century. The later insensitive interventions on the ground floor of 1980 consisting of the removal of presented wooden interpreters and an insignificant solution of the shield facade were corrected during the overall reconstruction.

The list of owners reflects the agitated history of the house from noble houses to private persons and government. After Wroclaw acquired the property Jan Ruthard Mirotický z Malešova, after which his wife Ludmila inherited it and sold it to Matthias Pirrler. In 1656 he bought the house Tobiáš Prattenberger for 1350 kicks and in 1672 he sold it to Třeboň township and fellow councilman Jan Kazil. He fixed the house, and in 1710 he advanced Melichar to Cibušek for 1,000 gold Rhine. The widow Teresa Cibušková sold the house in 1740 to her son-in-law Philip Thurner for 2000 golden Rhine and the widow Ludmila Thurner gave it to her second husband Josef Schatz. In 1773 he took the house Karel Solberger for 1400 gold Rhine and in 1808 she transferred the widow Antonia Solberger house to her son František Solperger. In the land book, Antonín Břeský z Birkenfelsu is listed in 1866. In 1901, the husband and wife Jan a Matylda Tesařovi bought the house, with half the building switched to John the Elder in 1930. In 1948, Marie Broukal, Božena Dušková and Dr Jan Tesák acquired a third of the ownership shares. In 1960 the property of the house passed through the forced donation agreement to the Czechoslovak State. In 1991, the restitution house was acquired by the descendants of former owners who sold it to existing owners in 1999.

Key events include damage to the house after a major fire In 1618 or in the siege of the city by the army of General Baltasar Marrads and Vich in 1622, followed by the first reconstruction in 1623. The Great Fire of Třeboň in 1781 requested further repairs and at that time probably a new crov was created with new ceilings above the first floor. At the end of the twentieth century, restitution took place and in 2001 the whole building was completely renovated after a historical survey and consultation with the Czech Budejovice Memorial Institute in order to protect and highlight all architectural valuable elements.

Today there are ground-floor vaults, basement and basement rooms under the name Wroclaw House for social purposes and good hospitality. In 1960 the property was transferred to the state and in 1980 an inappropriate adaptation of the ground floor was made, which was only repaired during reconstruction in 2001, when the restaurant Vratislav was opened on the ground floor. In summer there is also a front garden at Masaryk Square.

This house represents a valuable example of historical building development in Třeboň Square, where Gothic foundations, Renaissance core and later modifications are mixed. Visiting this place offers the opportunity to know the authentic historical environment associated with current social use.
