Loreto chapel in Brno, Baroque chapel in Minoritská street, Brno, Czech Republic.

The Loreto Chapel in Brno is a baroque chapel adjoining the Church of Saints John the Baptist and John the Evangelist at the Minorite Monastery. Builder Mořic Grimm erected it in the first quarter of the 18th century on the site of a former cemetery. The Holy House, built in 1716, is surrounded by ambits with the chapels of Saint John the Evangelist and of Mary and Joseph, and an originally free-standing bell tower adjoins the chapel.

The Holy House was built in 1716; between 1717 and 1719 ambits with the chapels of St John the Evangelist and of Mary and Joseph rose around it. In 1723 the ambit walls were raised and the space above the Holy House was vaulted, and the Holy Stairs were built as the chapel's presbytery. Builder Mořic Grimm directed the work on the site of a former cemetery; the complex has been a cultural monument since 1964.

The chapel reflects the strong devotion to Mary that shaped religious life in this region. Visitors can observe how sacred sites from Jerusalem were recreated here, bringing distant pilgrimage destinations closer to local faithful.

The chapel is easily accessible from the street and sits in a central location within the old town. Note that access may be limited during religious services, so visiting outside those times offers better viewing opportunities.

The Holy Stairs here were built as the chapel's presbytery after 1723, funded by a bequest from Baron Michal Wertema to the Brno Minorites. Relics are set into the steps: the Nativity crib in the 1st, the Holy Sepulchre in the 11th and the Holy Cross in the 28th.
