Church of Saint Anne, Gothic church near Charles Bridge, Prague, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Anne features high Gothic walls supported by buttresses, prominent windows, and an octagonal tower on its western facade.

Originally built between 1313 and 1330 on the site of a 12th-century Romanesque rotunda, the church belonged to the Knights Templar before passing to Dominican nuns.

The interior walls contain fragments of Gothic paintings created by artists from Emperor Charles IV's court workshops, including potential works by Master Theodoric.

The church now functions as Prague Crossroads cultural center, accommodating 400 people for concerts, lectures, theatrical performances, and public events.

The building preserves its original 14th-century Gothic timber roof structure, assembled without nails using wooden pins across 47 tie beams.
