Why visit this place?

• The new building of 1995 was designed by the architect Miroslav Melena; it was the first purpose-built theatre erected in the country in over 100 years.
• The Horácké Theatre began work on 18 October 1940 with Vrchlický's play The Trial of Love at the National House in Třebíč.
• Besides the tour there are hands-on workshops, so children get to make something themselves.
• Allow roughly an hour and a half; the programme is aimed at every age group from preschool to secondary school.
• There are 40 more tips within 25 km, enough to build a full-day trip.
• The whole programme is indoors, so rain is not a problem.
