The village of Kracovice is an administrative part of Stařeč.
Geographyedit
Stařeč is located about 3 kilometres (2 mi) southwest of Třebíč and 27 km (17 mi) southeast of Jihlava. It lies in the Jevišovice Uplands. The highest point is the hill Zadní hora at 634 m (2,080 ft) above sea level. The stream Stařečský potok flows through the market town.
Historyedit
The first written mention of Stařeč is from 1259, but the village may have already appeared in the foundation deed of Třebíč Monastery from 1101. In 1499, Stařeč was first mentioned as a market town. In 1534, it was promoted to market town again, so it probably lost this status briefly during this period.[2]
The main landmark is the Church of Saint James the Great. It is a late Romanesque building, rebuilt in the Baroque style. The tower dates from 1597.[6]
