The reneissance character of the town is due to a period of extreme wealth in the 14th to 16th century when Slavonice were an important town on the route from Prague to Vienna. When the route was relocated to the north, passing through Znojmo the town's source of wealth dried up as the local farming a forestry activiites could never generate enough income. The town is therefore very much preserved in its renaissance look.
