Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, Gothic church in Jindřichův Hradec, Czech Republic

The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is a Gothic structure in Jindřichův Hradec featuring a tall spire that rises distinctly from the town skyline. The building combines characteristic Gothic elements such as pointed arch windows and buttresses into a unified whole.

Founded in the 1360s–1370s under Oldřich III of Hradec as a new parish church and the church of the Teutonic Order commandery, it was finished by the early 15th century. Hussite troops burned it in 1434; Jindřich IV of Hradec had it repaired in 1482, and in 1594 Adam II of Hradec handed it to the Jesuits, who served it until 1773.

The church is the parish church of the Jindřichův Hradec parish and provostship. The Špulířská chapel, founded in 1489 by knight Viktorin Špulíř of Jiter and completed in 1506, bears its founder's name again today; its vault is decorated with carved animals such as a monkey, crocodile, boar, wolf and hippopotamus, and its neo-Gothic altar of 1856 holds a Gothic Madonna from around 1430.

The main portal from 1851 is in the west facade of the nave; two pointed portals open into the right aisle, and one entrance is on the north side. The tower, 68.3 m high, stands between the left aisle and the choir. The church is oriented, so the presbytery faces east.

The church is oriented, with its presbytery facing east, so the claim of a northeast-southwest alignment is wrong. A lesser-known feature is the octagonal stone spiral staircase called the "šnek", rising 4.75 m above the roof and topped by a 6 m pyramidal roof.
