Church of Saint George, Romanesque church in Kochov, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint George in Kochov is a Roman Catholic filial church of the Letovice parish, protected as a cultural monument. Its core is the original Romanesque presbytery, where the main altar holds an altarpiece of Saint George painted in 1866. A cemetery with a central wooden cross surrounds the building.

The original Romanesque church, dedicated to the Archangel Gabriel, probably dates from the mid-13th century; it was first recorded in 1274, when it served as a parish church. It burned down in 1683 and was restored in 1709 under the Letovice parish, taking Saint George as its patron. A second fire in 1856 was followed by another rebuilding, and renovation began in 2003 with new wiring and plaster.

The church is a filial church of the Letovice parish, and its patron saint is Saint George, to whom it was reassigned in 1709 after a fire. The main altar in the original Romanesque presbytery holds an altarpiece of Saint George painted in 1866. A cemetery with a central wooden cross surrounds the building.

The church stands in the cemetery in Kochov, a village near Letovice in the Blansko district, not in Prague. It is a filial church of the Letovice parish, so services are occasional rather than regular; check locally before visiting. The 2003 renovation renewed the wiring and gave the building a new plaster coat.

The church was originally dedicated to the Archangel Gabriel; it received its present dedication to Saint George only after being restored in 1709 and attached to the Letovice parish. A cemetery with a central wooden cross surrounds the building.
