Kostel Božího těla, Baroque pilgrimage church in Bludov, Czech Republic

The Church of the Corpus Christi is an oriented single-nave building with a segmentally ended presbytery and a music gallery in the western part of the nave. The presbytery has a cross vault with a three-sided lunette conclusion, while the nave is covered by a short barrel vault and two bays of Prussian vaulting on pilasters.

A modest chapel from the late 17th century was transformed into a Baroque church during the 1720s. The building later received Neoclassical modifications in the 1830s that altered its outward appearance.

Pilgrimages to the site are documented as early as 1583. After a cholera epidemic killed about 180 people in Bludov in 1855, residents vowed to hold a great pilgrimage on the feast of Saint Rosalia, 4 September, the day the epidemic ended. Pilgrimages are still held at Corpus Christi and a Mass on New Year's Eve.

The church is located in a rural setting and is best reached by car or on foot, as public transport in the area is limited. Visitors should be prepared for variable weather conditions, as the surrounding pathways can be unpaved depending on the season.

Local legend tells of a peasant woman who carried a consecrated host from Šumperk to feed her cow; she dropped it in the forest, and wild bees carried it into a tree cavity and built a wax monstrance around it. A second version names the widower Kuneš, who dropped the host after robbing and abandoning a dying farmer.
