Svatý Kopeček, Pilgrimage complex and basilica in Olomouc, Czech Republic.
The Basilica of the Visitation stands at an elevation of 393 meters, featuring characteristic Baroque architecture with two prominent towers and white exterior walls.
The site transformed from a small chapel built in 1632 into a grand church between 1669 and 1679, designed by architect G.P. Tencallo.
The basilica holds regular worship services, church concerts, and religious gatherings that bring together communities from different regions of Moravia.
Visitors can reach Svatý Kopeček by taking public transportation from central Olomouc, with regular bus services running throughout the day.
The church deviates from traditional east-west orientation, as it faces directly toward the Hradisko convent, creating an architectural connection between the structures.
