Church of the Beheading of Saint John the Baptist, Roman Catholic church in Hranice, Czech Republic

The Church of the Beheading of Saint John the Baptist features precise architectural elements designed by Franz Anton Grimm in the central part of Hranice.

The construction of this religious building reached completion in 1763, marking a period of substantial architectural development in the Olomouc Region.

The church contains architectural elements that represent regional religious traditions and serves the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Olomouc through regular services.

Located at Masarykovo náměstí, the church maintains its designation as cultural monument number 15818/8-417 under Czech heritage preservation regulations.

This religious structure emphasizes the specific moment of John the Baptist's execution, a theme rarely chosen for church dedications in European religious architecture.
