Church of Saint Luke

The Church of Saint Luke is a red brick church building located on Castle Hill with a wooden tower and cross-shaped floor plan. Today it serves both as an active place of worship and as a museum space that opens to visitors.

The building was constructed in 1877 with funding from English spa guests who needed a place to worship. Architect Oskar Mothes designed the structure while Josef Slowak oversaw its construction.

The church served as a spiritual center for English-speaking visitors to the spa town who gathered for worship. This connection to the international guest community shaped how locals understood the building's role in town life.

The building is located at Zámecký vrch 4 and maintains regular opening hours for visitors. It is worth stepping inside to explore the interior if you are interested in the architecture or the town's past.

The building today houses both religious functions and museum purposes within its walls. This dual role makes it a place where visitors can experience both the spiritual and historical sides of the structure in one visit.
