Husův sbor, Hussite church in Zelené Předměstí, Czech Republic
Husův sbor is a church in Zelené Předměstí featuring clean functionalist architecture with a simple tower design. The building contains multiple levels with spaces for religious services, community gatherings, and cultural events.
The building served as a radio station during the Prague Uprising of 1945, supporting the Czech resistance movement. This role during the occupation made the church an important location in the struggle for liberation.
The church takes its name from the Reformation leader Jan Hus and reflects the legacy of the Czech reform movement that remains visible in its design today. Artworks inside connect visitors to this historical religious movement and create a space where faith and the past meet.
The building is multi-level and accessible for various visits and events. Visitors should expect that different areas may be in use at different times depending on what is happening.
A large copper chalice sits atop the tower, housing bells in the upper floors. This detail combines the symbol of communion with the bell tower function of the structure.
