Church of Saint Wenceslaus, Baroque church in Loket, Czech Republic
The Church of Saint Wenceslaus features high vaulted ceilings, ornate decorations, and stands near the medieval Loket Castle along the Ohře River.
Construction of the church occurred between 1701 and 1734, replacing a previous Gothic structure that served the local community for centuries.
The church honors Saint Wenceslaus, Duke of Bohemia from 921 to 935, who became the patron saint of the Czech state after his martyrdom.
Located at Kostelní 14/3 in Loket, the church maintains regular Catholic services and welcomes visitors interested in religious architecture.
The church structure incorporates elements of the surrounding landscape, positioned strategically at a bend in the river that gives Loket its name.
