The small town Studená lies about 13 km west of the town Telč. It is situated in the basin of the Studenovský Potok (Studenov Stream) on the border of large forests of the Českomoravská Vrchovina (Czech-Moravian Uplands), 618 m a.s.l.
It used to be a small village with a fortress in the 14th century. A lot of owners often changed here. At the end of the 16th century Studená was a small town with brewery and malt-house and it became property of Zachariáš of Hradec. He rebuilt the fortress into the Renaissance chateau.
The dominant feature of the town is the St. Procopius' Church. It was built at the beginning of the 14th century and it was rebuilt into the Baroque style after big fire in 1750. Another reconstruction was in 1855, but the core of the church has preserved the original face.
