Saint Florian church, Baroque chapel in Moravský Krumlov, Czech Republic
Saint Florian church sits on a hilltop overlooking Moravský Krumlov and displays characteristic baroque features with ornate decorations on its facade and interior spaces. The building was constructed in the late 1600s and retains its original architectural character.
The church was built in 1695 as a religious center for the local community during the baroque period in Bohemia. It received official protection as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic in the 20th century.
The church serves as a gathering place for locals and pilgrims who come to pray and participate in religious services. Its name honors Saint Florian, venerated in Catholic tradition as a protector against fire.
You can view the building from the outside and enjoy views over the town from its hilltop location. Plan your visit around worship service times or ask locally about special opening hours for visitors.
The building survived the heavy bombing of Moravský Krumlov during World War II when much of the town was destroyed. This made the church one of the few remaining historic structures to emerge from the war unscathed.
