St. Nicholas Church, Baroque church in Malá Strana, Czech Republic
The St. Nicholas Church features a central dome with a height of 79 meters and contains decorative marble elements throughout its interior structure.
The construction process extended from 1673 to 1755, led by three architects: Christoph Dientzenhofer, Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer, and Anselmo Lurago.
The church maintains its status as a religious center while hosting classical music concerts, including performances of Mozart's compositions throughout the year.
Visitors can access the church daily between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with entry points through the main portal on Malostranské Square.
The church bell tower served as an observation point for the state police during the Communist period, monitoring activities in nearby foreign embassies.
