Church in Valašské muzeum v přírodě, Wooden church at Wallachian Open Air Museum, Rožnov pod Radhoštěm, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint Anne is a wooden copy of the church from Větřkovice, which burned down in 1887, built in the open-air museum between 1939 and 1941 and consecrated in 1945. Wartime shortages meant no log construction and a plain interior; the nave is now hung with 14 Stations of the Cross from the earlier Rožnov church, and benches carry guild figures and banners.

The present church is a loose copy of a wooden church from Větřkovice (now part of Kopřivnice) that burned down in 1887. It was built in the grounds of the Valašské muzeum v přírodě during the Second World War, in 1939–1941, and consecrated in 1945; wartime shortages of money meant it was given no timber-log construction and only a very simple interior. In 1995 it was declared a national cultural monument of the Czech Republic together with other protected buildings of the open-air museum.

The church is a copy of the burnt church in Větřkovice; its side altar is dedicated to St. Wenceslas, patron of the original church. The pews carry guild figures and banners, and a barrier called žebráčna separates the nave from the entrance.

The church stands inside the open-air museum grounds, entered through the main gate or the side gate marked "Číslo poslední". The wartime interior is lit only by daylight, so visit in the morning for the best view of the painted coffered ceiling. The surrounding cemetery, Valašský Slavín, holds the graves of Emil Zátopek, Jiří Raška and the Jaroňek brothers.

The church is a loose copy of a wooden church from Větřkovice that burned down in 1887; unlike the original it has no log construction, because money was short during the war years. Its side benches carry guild emblems and banners, and a barrier called the žebráčna separates the nave from the entrance.
