Red Church, Gothic Revival church building in Olomouc, Czech Republic
The Red Church stands 55 meters tall and features red brick construction with Gothic Revival architectural elements throughout its exterior and interior design.
Built between 1901 and 1902 by German architect Max Löwe, the church initially served the German-speaking Protestant congregation in the region of Moravia.
The building transformed from a Protestant church to a university library storage facility in 1959, reflecting the social changes following World War II.
Following extensive renovations completed in 2023, the church opens Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 7:00 PM with a café in its entrance hall.
The recent reconstruction added a modern annex with pink concrete surfaces and a book wall filled with illuminated literature displays.
