Church of Saint Lawrence, Medieval religious monument in Jinonice, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint Lawrence in Jinonice is a Romanesque building with a rectangular nave, a preserved apse and a four-metre-long crypt containing several tombs. A sacristy was added in the Baroque reconstruction, and a wooden bell tower and a cemetery with a hexagonal funeral chapel stand next to it.

The church is first documented in the 13th century, but its ashlar masonry suggests an 11th-century origin, making it one of the oldest churches in Greater Prague. It was rebuilt in 1571 and again at the end of the 18th century in Baroque style, with the sacristy added then; the last reconstruction ran from 1894 to 1901.

The wooden bell tower beside the church still holds a working bell; of the original three, only the largest, named Vavřinec after the church's patron, survives. The adjacent cemetery has a hexagonal funeral chapel.

The church stands at the corner of U opatrovny and Vavřinecká streets in old Butovice, about a kilometre from Jinonice metro station; a yellow hiking marker leads there. Prokopské údolí valley is close by, so the walk can be combined with a longer hike.

The wooden bell tower beside the church once held three bells; only the largest, named Vavřinec, survives and still hangs there. The adjacent cemetery has a hexagonal funeral chapel.
