Church of Saint John of Nepomuk, Religious monument in Skuhrov, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint John of Nepomuk is a single-nave late Baroque church standing in the middle of a cemetery in Skuhrov. Its main altar dates from the late 18th century, while the two side altars, dedicated to Saint John of Nepomuk with the Fourteen Holy Helpers and to the Virgin Mary, were made around 1700. An Empire-style tower was added in 1811, replacing an earlier wooden bell tower.

A Gothic church already stood on this site in the first half of the 14th century. It was altered in 1688, 1693, 1707–1712 and 1727, then completely rebuilt in late Baroque style in 1752–53. In 1811 an Empire-style tower replaced the original wooden bell tower.

Saint John of Nepomuk holds special veneration throughout the Czech lands, and this church reflects that local devotion through its interior decorations and religious art. Visitors can observe how this patron saint appears repeatedly in paintings and carvings throughout the space.

The church stands in the middle of the cemetery in Skuhrov, so access to the grounds passes the graves; keep to the paths. The building is a cultural monument listed since 1958 and serves as the village's Roman Catholic parish church, so opening depends on services rather than fixed visiting hours.

This chapel honors a saint who was martyred and thrown into a river, making him especially revered in Czech folk belief as a protector against misfortune. That connection to water and safeguarding runs deep in the local faith traditions of this area.
