Church of Gunther of Bohemia, Catholic church in Dobrá Voda, Czech Republic.

The Church of Gunther of Bohemia stands near Březník peak, featuring glass altars and sacrificial tables that reflect sunlight through its windows.

Built between 1706 and 1734, this church represents the only religious structure worldwide dedicated to Saint Gunther, a German hermit and diplomat from the 11th century.

The interior contains modern glass installations created by Czech artist Vladimíra Tesařová during the 1995 renovation, merging traditional architecture with contemporary art.

The church serves as the endpoint of the Gunthersteig pilgrimage route, which begins at Niederalteich Abbey in Germany and crosses through the Bavarian Forest.

The church's glass altars, created during its renovation phase, transform the interior space with natural light effects throughout different times of the day.
