Church of Saint John the Baptist Na Prádle, Gothic church in Malá Strana, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint John the Baptist Na Prádle combines Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements, featuring stone walls and characteristic period windows.

Constructed in 1235, this religious building transformed into a public laundry facility following Emperor Joseph II's reforms in the late eighteenth century.

The church maintains its dual role as a place of worship for both Catholic and Czechoslovak Hussite congregations since the 1930s.

Located at Říční 4 on Kampa Island, the church welcomes visitors via tram lines 12, 20, 22, and 91, with the Újezd stop nearby.

The name 'Na Prádle' derives from its temporary function as a laundry facility during the late eighteenth century reforms.
