Church of Saint Anne, Former Gothic monastery church in Old Town, Prague, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Anne is a single-nave Gothic monastery church built in 1319–1330, set inside a block between Anenské Square and Liliová Street by Zlatá Street. Its white west front has a tall central tower with a red-tiled pyramidal roof and a projecting entrance porch with a wooden double door. Inside, a high flat timber ceiling rests on exposed beams above pointed arches and clustered columns.

The church was built between 1319 and 1330 for a Dominican convent on the site of an older Romanesque rotunda and Church of St. Lawrence, which archaeology dates to the 12th century. In 1312 the Knights Templar sold the property to the Knights Hospitaller, who passed it to the Dominican nuns in 1313. The nuns' new nave and choir were completed in the second half of the 14th century.

The church is named after Saint Anne, and from 1365 documents call it the choir of Saint Anne, though in 1355 it was still recorded as the church of Saint Lawrence. Two vault bosses kept in the National Museum lapidary carry the donors' coats of arms: three water-lily leaves of the lords of Říčany and the Bohemian royal lion. Since 2004 the Vision 97 Foundation has run the building as the Prague Crossroads cultural centre.

The building now operates as the Prague Crossroads cultural center and hosts regular events throughout the year. It's best to check ahead about specific visiting times and accessibility since these depend on scheduled performances and gatherings.

The medieval roof truss above the nave, dendro-dated to after 1364, is the only surviving medieval roof over a major sacred building in Prague's historic towns. Its tie beams are reinforced with crossed timbers forming a St Andrew's cross.
