Saint Peter of Alcantara Church in Karviná-Doly
Saint Peter of Alcantara Church in Karviná-Doly, Baroque church in Karviná-Doly, Czech Republic
The Saint Peter of Alcantara Church features a single nave with altar architecture from its construction period and medieval stone baptistery in its corner.
Built in 1736 by nobleman František Wilhelm Larisch, the church replaced a wooden structure dedicated to Saint Martin mentioned in documents from 1447.
Regular religious services take place in this church, which maintains its role as a religious center for both Czech and Polish speaking communities.
During summer weekends, visitors can access the church without charge and receive guidance from local experts about its structural characteristics.
Due to coal mining activities beneath the structure, the church tilts 6.8 degrees southward, with the ground having sunk 37 meters from its original position.
