Klášter Letovice, Baroque monastery in Letovice, Czech Republic.

Klášter Letovice is a Baroque monastery complex with the Church of Saint Wenceslas, built in the second half of the 18th century under the Vienna lay brother Longinus Traub. The church holds 1820 altars and 1930 paintings by the local painter Jan Daněk, and beneath it lies a crypt with the remains of founder Jindřich Kajetán Blümegen and the Kálnoky family.

Construction of the monastery began on 26 April 1751, funded by interest on 24,000 gold coins donated by Jindřich Kajetán Blümegen, who also supplied all building materials. It was built for six brothers and six patients, and the church was completed in 1773. The order was expelled in 1949 and returned after 1989.

The monastery church holds paintings by the Letovice painter Jan Daněk from 1930, set alongside the main and side altars decorated in 1820. At the Marian altar hangs a painting of the nursing Madonna, and the Stations of the Cross were carved by Brno sculptor Jiří Netík in 1997.

The monastery complex now houses Letovice Hospital, so the former convent buildings are not open as a museum; the church of St Wenceslas, which the Brothers of Mercy kept after leaving in 2017, is the part to look for. The monastery stands by the church of St Wenceslas in Letovice, within the Boskovice deanery.

The monastery's Baroque pharmacy retains its original furnishings and rich fresco decoration; the order ran a pharmacy on Masaryk Square, confiscated with the monastery in 1949. The crypt beneath the church holds the remains of founder Jindřich Kajetán Blümegen, members of the order and the Kálnoky family.
