Church of Holy Trinity, Cemetery church in Slaný, Czech Republic
The Church of Holy Trinity is a building in Slaný with Renaissance features and early Baroque modifications, including a bell tower and decorated interior spaces. The connected monastery complex contains multiple structures, courtyards, and a refectory with historical wall paintings.
Construction began in 1581 and was completed in 1602 after various religious orders operated the site. A Loreto Chapel was added in 1657, inspired by visits to Italian pilgrimage destinations.
The church is part of a monastery complex with quiet courtyards and connected rooms still inhabited by religious communities. The Carmelite presence has shaped daily rhythms and practices within these spaces.
The complex is centrally located in town and reachable on foot. Visitors should know that some areas are private spaces and access may be limited in places.
The refectory contains wall paintings from the 17th and 18th centuries that were discovered and revealed during recent restoration work. These hidden artworks show the artistic quality that lay concealed in monastic spaces for centuries.
