Church of the Finding of the True Cross

The Church of the Finding of the True Cross stands within a Dominican monastery complex, featuring ornate decorations and a grand central altar.

Originally established in 1230, the church underwent reconstruction after a devastating fire in 1555 destroyed its library and precious religious artifacts.

The church maintains religious services while housing the notable altarpiece created by F. A. Maulbertsch in 1765, representing regional artistic excellence.

Located at Dolní Česká 3 in Znojmo, visitors should verify opening hours in advance as access times to the church interior vary.

The church holds a special Virgin Mary of Znojmo picture in its right middle side chapel, drawing regular pilgrimages since the 17th century.
