Church of Saint Procopius in Březové Hory

Church of Saint Procopius in Březové Hory, Orthodox church in Březové Hory, Příbram, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint Procopius in Březové Hory is a pseudoromanesque church built in 1901 by the Příbram builder Antonín Bastl to plans by František Vitáček. It stands at the highest point of Březové Hory, at the top of Prokopská Street, and belongs to the Czechoslovak Orthodox Church.

A wooden bell tower with a bell cast in 1580 by Brikcí z Cimperka stood here from the 16th century. After a storm in 1709 it was repaired, and a brick chapel was completed in 1732 and consecrated in 1733. The chapel was enlarged with a wooden annex in 1835, then mostly demolished in 1879 for the present church by builder Antonín Bastl.

The church is dedicated to Saint Procopius, patron saint of miners, whose feast day was when the chapel was completed in 1732. The original bell from 1580, cast by Prague bell founder Brikcí z Cimperka, is now kept in the nearby Mining Museum in Příbram.

The church stands at the top of Prokopská Street, on the highest point of Březové Hory, so the approach is uphill. The bell from the earlier bell tower, cast in 1580 by Brikcí z Cimperka, is kept in the nearby Mining Museum of Příbram, a short walk away.

Adjacent to the building is a birch forest containing two historical crosses - one made of stone from 1831 and another of cast iron from 1859. These crosses show the religious devotion that developed over generations in this forest area.
