Husův sbor, Hussite church in Nová Ulice, Olomouc, Czech Republic.

Husův sbor is a three-nave neoclassical basilica built in 1925–1926, entered by a monumental staircase with six columns with capitals. The main nave is 15 m high and 30 m long, the side aisles 9.75 m; the interior is vaulted with square coffered reliefs, and an asymmetrical tower topped by a chalice stands at the rear.

The Czechoslovak Hussite congregation in Olomouc was founded in 1923 and bought land by the Mlýnský potok beyond the northern walls. Architect Hubert Aust designed the church in 1924–1925 and František Petřík built it in 1925–1926; the foundation stone was laid on 6 July 1925, the anniversary of Hus's death. In 1938 Aust designed a columbarium in the basement, built by Jan Komrska from 1940 to 1942 and enlarged in 1955.

The church belongs to the Czechoslovak Hussite Church, whose Olomouc congregation was founded in 1923. The chalice on the asymmetrical rear tower was designed at the suggestion of Karel Farský, the church's first patriarch. Occasional concerts and cultural performances are held in the hall, which seats about 200 people.

The church stands on the northwestern edge of the historic core, in the Nová Ulice cadastral area, on the bank of the Mlýnský potok. The prayer hall is in the raised ground floor, reached by a monumental staircase with six columns. The hall seats about 200 people and occasionally hosts concerts.

Beneath the main floors lies a columbarium that few visitors notice while they explore the upper spaces. This underground feature connects the sacred function above with remembrance of those who have passed.
