Saint Giles Church, Nymburk, Gothic brick church in Nymburk, Czech Republic.
The red brick edifice features a dominant front tower reaching 66 meters high, with pointed arch windows and intricate ribbed vaults throughout the structure.
Initially dedicated to Saint Nicholas in the 13th century, the church underwent a name change to Saint Giles during the events of the Thirty Years War.
The interior contains a collection of religious art, including a 14th-century statue of Saint Nicholas created by the workshop of master builder Peter Parler.
The church stands in Kostelní Square, offering tower access for visitors who want to view the Central Bohemian landscape from above.
Flemish settlers introduced specialized fair-face brickwork techniques during construction, creating distinct patterns in the church walls that remain visible today.
