Okříšky () is a market town in Třebíč District in the Vysočina Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 2,000 inhabitants.
==Etymology== According to one theory, the name is derived from the personal name Okřeša or Oskora. According to the second theory, the name is derived from okřísit (i.e. 'resurrect') and may have been created after the village disappeared and was then restored.
