Church of the Visitation of Our Lady, Religious monument in Bílá Voda, Czech Republic
The Church of the Visitation of Our Lady is a religious building complex located in Bílá Voda, Czechia, constructed from brick and rubble stone. The site consists of the church structure along with adjoining monastery buildings arranged in traditional regional architectural style.
The complex was founded in 1604. Major reconstruction work between 1755 and 1765 transformed it into its current architectural form.
This church anchors the religious life of Bílá Voda and remains central to the local Catholic community today. The building stands as a gathering place where residents come to worship and mark important moments in their faith.
The site is easily accessible in central Bílá Voda and can be visited throughout the year. Keep in mind this is an active religious site where respectful behavior is expected at all times.
From 1951 to 1989, the monastery complex served as an internment site holding up to 1,000 nuns from across the country. This hidden chapter in its past reflects a period when the complex became a center of religious resistance under communist rule.
