Milevsko Monastery, Premonstratensian monastery in Milevsko, Czech Republic
The monastery features a three-aisled basilica with two towers, complemented by the Church of Saint Giles and a capitular hall within the complex.
George of Milevsko established this religious institution between 1185 and 1187, making it the first monastery in southern Bohemia with Jarloch as its initial abbot.
The monastery combined Romanesque architecture with later Gothic and Baroque modifications, reflecting the changing architectural styles through Czech history.
The monastery, designated as a National Cultural Monument in 2008, underwent extensive restoration work after 1995, including repairs to the basilica's facade.
During its peak in the 14th century, the monastery controlled the town of Milevsko and approximately 60 surrounding villages, demonstrating its regional influence.
