Hussite church, Religious monument in Čistá, Czech Republic.

Husův dům in Čistá is a former Evangelical Church of Czech Brethren prayer house built in 1922 to a design by architect Hanuš Zápal, completed by Cyril Čech. Its street front is dominated by a tall pitched roof rising into a monumental triangular gable flanked by two pillars and decorated with cubist-style geometric ribs. The interior was furnished modestly, with pews from an unidentified Prague synagogue and a pulpit and communion table donated by the Plzeň-západ congregation.

The building was designed by architect Hanuš Zápal and opened in 1922. It was built during a period of religious reassessment in Czechoslovakia following the First World War.

The building was the first non-Catholic prayer house in the Rakovník region, opened on 8 October 1922. Its name recalls Jan Hus, the reformer burned in 1415, and the congregation came from the Evangelical Church of Czech Brethren, which grew quickly after 1918. The pews were brought from an unnamed Prague synagogue, and the pulpit and Lord's Table were gifts from the Plzeň-západ congregation.

The building stands by the main road leading to the railway station in Čistá. It has been unused since 2023 and is deteriorating, so it is not open for services or visits; the exterior and its triangular gable can be seen from the street.

The pews came from an unspecified Prague synagogue, while the pulpit and the Lord's Table were donated by the congregation of Plzeň-západ from its former prayer house. The architect, Hanuš Zápal, was the son of Antonín Zápal, chairman of the Kralovice Protestants, and he took on the project free of charge.
