Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, Gothic parish church in Číhošť, Czech Republic

The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Číhošť is a single-nave Gothic building with a five-sided presbytery and a sacristy on the north side. Its exterior facade features a distinctive wheat-ear masonry pattern, and the main altar from 1888 stands on the original stone altar table from the church's construction.

The church is first mentioned in 1350, when a cemetery surrounded it. After the Hussite wars, Utraquist priests served here while the church remained a filial church of the Ledeč parish; it only received its own priest in 1856. In 1949 the Číhošť miracle made it famous, and in 2015 the remains of Father Josef Toufar were placed here.

The church is a pilgrimage site associated with the Číhošť miracle of 1949 and the martyrdom of parish priest Josef Toufar. A monument to Toufar was unveiled by the church in 1990, and his remains were placed here in 2015. The original cross from the main altar was removed by the StB and replaced with a copy.

The church stands in Číhošť, in the Havlíčkův Brod district. A foundation fund established in June 2012, set up by the municipality with believers and non-believers, raises money for repairs; the most costly item is the restoration of the frescoes at two million crowns, followed by the tower and exterior paint.

The exterior facade features a rare clay-and-straw construction known as klasové zdivo, unusual for a Gothic church. The original cross from the main altar was removed by the StB secret police to an unknown location and replaced by a copy.
