Church of the Holy Family, Catholic church in České Budějovice, Czech Republic.

The Church of the Holy Family is a Neo-Gothic single-nave church built in 1886–1888 by builder Jakub Stabernak at the corner of Karla IV Street, within the former convent and orphanage complex of the Sisters of Mercy of St. Charles Borromeo. It has one small tower, a sacristy and a choir loft, and its walls and ceiling carry dense plant and geometric motifs in the Beuron style, designed by the Benedictine Gislain Béthune.

The Church of the Holy Family was built in 1886–1888 by builder Jakub Stabernak for the Borromean convent and orphanage complex. Deconsecrated in 1968, it served for decades as an archive depository. It reopened for services and cultural events at the end of 2014 and was declared a cultural monument of the Czech Republic in 2018.

The church was deconsecrated in 1968 and served for decades as an archive depository; the vestibule still shows a painting of the Temple in Jerusalem with numbered captions, and the east wall depicts the Garden of Gethsemane and the Mount of Olives. Since 2014 it has reopened for services and for public lectures by the University of South Bohemia and the Academy of Sciences.

The entrance is on Karla IV Street, at the corner of the former Borromean convent and orphanage complex. The church opens to the public around 18 April for the International Day of Monuments, at the turn of May and June for the Night of Churches, and in September for European Heritage Days; since late 2014 it has also hosted services and lectures.

The church was deconsecrated in 1968 and served for decades as an archive depository; the shelving was dismantled and the records moved to the district archive on Rudolfovská třída before the space was cleared in the early 2010s.
