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

The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary features a tall spiky tower that stands prominently against the town skyline.

The church construction began around 1278, initially connected to religious orders including potential Templar involvement before being managed by Minorites.

Interior walls display numerous 14th-century paintings incorporating religious symbols, crosses, and figures of saints including Saint Andrew.

The church building operates as part of the town museum complex, making it accessible for visitors exploring Jindřichův Hradec's heritage sites.

The structure deviates from traditional church architecture with its ENE-WSW alignment instead of the standard east-west orientation of Christian churches.
