The largest complex of fishponds in the Czech Republic is situated in the Trebon Basin, in the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Most of the Trebon fishponds were built in the 16th century by Rozmberks, a significant noble family. There are currently 460 fishponds, which are used for breeding freshwater fish, especially carp. The Trebon fishponds and the surrounding landscape also provide a home for many endangered species of flora and fauna (sea eagle, Eurasian otter)
