Church of St. Peter at Poříčí, Romanesque and Gothic church in New Town, Prague, Czech Republic.

The Church of St. Peter at Poříčí features four towers and separate bell buildings, incorporating both Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements within its structure.

Built in 1150 as a Romanesque basilica, the church underwent Gothic reconstruction in 1382, transforming the northern nave while preserving the southern Romanesque section.

The Knights of the Cross with the Red Star maintain this religious structure, which served German communities in the medieval village of Poříčí.

Located on Biskupská Street, the church contains preserved Romanesque towers and a Gothic portal that replaced the original entrance in the 15th century.

Archaeological research during 1913-1914 renovations revealed multiple construction phases, documenting the transition between Romanesque and Gothic architectural periods.
