Church of the Annunciation, Neoclassical church in Šternberk, Czech Republic.

The Church of the Annunciation in Šternberk is a Neoclassical building completed in 1783 to designs by Brno architect František Antonín Grimm. Its nave rises 30 m, the church is 65 m long, and its towers reach 60 m. Inside are frescoes by František Antonín Šebesta-Sebastini and side-altar paintings by Josef Winterhalder Jr. and Leopold Kupelwieser.

The site traces its roots to 1371, when an Augustinian monastery was established there. The present building was constructed between 1775 and 1783 following two destructive fires that damaged the earlier structure.

The church is dedicated to the Annunciation, and its furnishings come from several sculptors and painters. Ondřej Schweigl made the main altar, the side altars and the pulpit; Jan Michael Scherhauf carved the figures on the facade. The main altar painting is by Martin Antonín Lublinský, and the side altars hold works by Josef Winterhalder the Younger and Leopold Kupelwieser.

The church stands in the centre of Šternberk, owned since 2019 by the Roman Catholic Parish of Šternberk. Its nave reaches 30 m in height, the towers 60 m, and the building is 65 m long, so the towers serve as a landmark when orienting yourself in town. Visitors enter for worship; the parish and the Šternberk information centre provide details on access.

The high altar was completed in 1792, yet in 1798 parish priest Josef Babor commissioned sculptor Ondřej Schweigl to build it, and Schweigl also supplied the side altars and pulpit. The interior frescoes are by František Antonín Šebesta-Sebastini; the fire of 31 July 1927 damaged them and burned the new organ.
