Opatov is a market town in Třebíč District in the Vysočina Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 800 inhabitants.

Geography

Opatov is located about 15 kilometres (9 mi) west of Třebíč and 19 km (12 mi) south of Jihlava. It lies in the Křižanov Highlands. The highest point is the Brtník hill at 681 m (2,234 ft) above sea level. The Brtnice River flows through the market town. There are several fishponds in the municipal territory.

History

The first written mention of Opatov is from 1086. In 1487, it was bought by the Waldstein family. In 1540, the village was promoted to a market town. From 1623, Opatov was a property of the Collalto family. In 1662 or 1696 (according to various chroniclers), a large fire destroyed most of the market town.[2]
