Church of Saint James the Greater
Church of Saint James the Greater, Romanesque church in Jakub Církvice, Czech Republic
The Church of Saint James the Greater stands with stone walls, featuring a Baroque tower positioned along the axis of the presbytery.
The Cistercian monks established this religious structure between 1148 and 1165, making it one of the earliest Romanesque buildings in the region.
The interior contains preserved medieval elements, including a notable tombstone of Ladislav of Sternberg dating from 1566.
