Church of Our Lady of Victories

Church of Our Lady of Victories, Modern Catholic church in Moravský Žižkov, Czech Republic

The Church of Our Lady of Victories is a Roman Catholic church built in 2002 at the crossroads in the centre of Moravský Žižkov, on the site of the former village cemetery. It consists of a nave and a separate free-standing tower with three bells and a cross, aligned on the northeast side. The windowless south facade has a portal with massive doors bearing a cross relief, and above it a statue of Our Lady of Victories was placed in 2006. Floor-to-ceiling windows at the rear light the white interior, where wooden pews, a choir gallery with organ and a coloured-glass cross above the altar stand out.

The church was built in 2000–2002 on the site of the former village cemetery, funded mainly by local residents through a collection, with a contribution from the municipality. The foundation stone was blessed by Pope John Paul II during his visit to Olomouc in 1997, after the village had sought its own church since 1875. It was consecrated to Our Lady of Victories on 17 August 2002 and is a filial church of the Velké Bílovice parish.

The church is a filial church of the Velké Bílovice parish, so regular services are held here rather than a resident priest. Its name, Our Lady of Victories, was chosen at the consecration on 17 August 2002. The building stands on the site of the former village cemetery, and local residents funded it through a collection, with the municipality contributing part of the cost.

The church stands at the crossroads in the centre of Moravský Žižkov, on the site of the former village cemetery. Entry is step-free, so wheelchair users and prams can reach the interior. The nave and the free-standing bell tower with three bells stand in one line on the north-east side.

The foundation stone was blessed by Pope John Paul II during his 1997 visit to Olomouc, five years before the church was consecrated. The church stands on the site of the former village cemetery. The bells hang in a tower set apart from the nave, aligned with a cross on the northeast side.
