Cathedral of St Nicholas, České Budějovice
Cathedral of St Nicholas, České Budějovice, Catholic cathedral in České Budějovice, Czech Republic.
The Cathedral of St Nicholas features a triple nave layout divided by three pairs of massive prismatic pillars and stands in the city center.
The foundation stone of this religious building was laid in 1265, shortly after the city's establishment, with the initial consecration occurring in 1297.
The cathedral interior contains artistic works including the main altar from 1791 by Z. Hueber and a painting of St Nicholas from 1648 by D. Bachmann.
