Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Kladruby monastery, Gothic baroque church in Kladruby, Czech Republic.

The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Kladruby is a church building rising above the monastery and blending Gothic and Baroque architectural features. The structure displays a dome topped with a golden Marian crown and dominates the monastery grounds with its presence.

The monastery was founded in 1108 by Prince Svatopluk, and Prince Vladislav I completed the church in 1115, where he was buried. Consecrated in 1233, it was devastated by the Hussites in 1421 and stood roofless for a long time. Abbot Maurus Fintzguth had Santini-Aichel rebuild it in baroque Gothic style from 1712 to 1726.

The church is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, Saint Wolfgang and Saint Benedict. Its Baroque-Gothic form, built under Abbot Maurus Fintzguth, was meant to show the continuity of the Benedictine order before the Hussite period. Prince Vladislav I was buried in the earlier church on this site.

The church stands in the Kladruby monastery complex, reachable on foot through the grounds. The nave, transept and monastic choir form a continuous route oriented toward the crossing dome and the trefoil presbytery, so visitors pass through both focal spaces in sequence.

The dome over the crossing rests on an octagonal drum and is crowned by a gilded Marian crown atop the lantern's eight-sided roof. Santini shortened the floor plan by 660 cm, shifting the dome to the centre of the church so it dominates both exterior and interior.
