Church of Saint Francis Seraphicus in Choceň, Catholic church in Choceň, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Francis Seraphicus features a large cupola and a floor plan where the presbytery forms a small cross with chapels forming a larger cross.

The Knights of the Cross with a Red Star, who evolved from the Franciscan brotherhood, established their presence at this church site in the medieval period.

The interior decoration includes frescoes of the Last Judgment on the dome and paintings of church fathers on metal plates mounted on the building pillars.

The church maintains regular Catholic services throughout the week and allows visitors to explore the building before scheduled religious ceremonies.

The second oldest organ in Prague, dating from 1702, remains in the church as an example of early eighteenth-century Baroque musical craftsmanship.
