Church of the Visitation of Our Lady, Baroque church in Lobendava, Czech Republic.

The Church of the Visitation of Our Lady is a single-nave baroque building with a rectangular plan and a recessed semicircular presbytery. Its nave measures 38 metres long, 17 metres wide and 13 metres high, and the tower reaches 35 metres. The vault is decorated with frescoes by Claudius Schraudolph the Elder and Josef Führich depicting scenes from the life of the Virgin Mary and the Old Testament.

The church was built in the 18th century during the flourishing period of baroque architecture in the Czech lands. Architect Zacharias Hoffmann designed the structure that stands in Lobendava today.

The church remains a spiritual center for the local community where residents gather for worship and celebrate Catholic traditions. Visitors can observe how the space continues to serve its role in the rhythm of village life.

The church stands in Lobendava, the northernmost village in the Czech Republic, near the German border. The former cemetery around it was closed in 1874, and a sandstone statue of St John of Nepomuk from 1746 stands south of the building. The two-storey late-baroque parish house from 1767 is by Antonín Schmidt.

The church became the northernmost in the Czech Republic after the Fukov church was demolished in 1960. Its tower holds a colony of about 900 greater mouse-eared bats. The vault frescoes still show bullet marks from the end of World War II, when Lobendava was liberated by the 2nd Polish Army.
