Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary

Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, Baroque church in Střílky, Czech Republic.

The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is a single-nave Baroque building from the 18th century in the upper part of Střílky. Its main altar follows a model from Olomouc Cathedral, and the altarpiece is a copy of Paolo Pagani's painting from Velehrad. The church retains original furnishings, including a 1771 organ by František Sieber.

The present church replaced an older one destroyed by fire; Amand Antonín of Petřvald, founder of the Baroque cemetery, bound his successor to build a replacement. Construction began before 1763, when the Petřvald family died out with Jan Bernard, and continued under the Küenburgs. The church was consecrated in 1770, with interior work finishing afterwards.

The church is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, and the main altar painting is a copy of the original from Velehrad by the Venetian painter Paolo Pagani. Two bells hang in the tower: the larger, from the mid-17th century, is dedicated to the Holy Trinity, and the smaller, half a century younger, to the Virgin Mary.

The building remains accessible to visitors and continues to function as a place of worship for the local Catholic community. It is advisable to check opening times in advance or plan your visit around service hours.

The church tower holds two bells: the larger, cast in the mid-17th century, is dedicated to the Holy Trinity, and the smaller, dedicated to the Virgin Mary, is about fifty years younger. Opposite the church, on a rise in the upper part of the village, lies the Baroque cemetery founded by Amand Antonín of Petřvald.
