Church of Saint Ludmila, Romanesque Revival church in Chvaly, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint Ludmila in Chvaly, Horní Počernice, is a parish church attached to the side wing of the Chvaly chateau. Its 1793–1794 rebuild turned the former St. Anne chapel into the presbytery and added a larger barrel-vaulted nave with two wide windows and an organ choir. A neo-Romanesque tower from 1825 stands beside it.

A chapel of St Anne built by the Jesuits in 1660 stood here; in 1793–1794 Father Josef Jan Pánek had it rebuilt as the church of St Ludmila, the old nave becoming the presbytery. The neo-Romanesque tower was added in 1825 and rebuilt in 1875 to carry two bells of 1000 and 500 kg.

The high altar is dedicated to Saint Ludmila, with side altars to Saint John of Nepomuk and Saint Wenceslas. Vilém Kandler painted the altarpiece images in 1880. The church has held its own parish register since 1711.

The church stands in the Chvaly chateau grounds in Horní Počernice, reachable by bus from Černý Most metro station. It is an active parish church, so visits are best timed outside services; the interior was repainted and rewired in 2007.

The church is the second-oldest surviving building in Prague-Horní Počernice, after the Chvaly chateau it adjoins. Its tower bells, cast in 1947, were obtained through parish priest František Štverák, imprisoned by both the Nazis and the Communists.
