Church of Saint Vincent de Paul, Neo-Romanesque church in Perštýn, Czech Republic
Description
The Church of Saint Vincent de Paul is built with red brick and sandstone, featuring two towers on the northwest facade and a three-nave basilica layout. The interior space follows a traditional basilica plan with architectural details characteristic of Romanesque Revival design.
History
Constructed between 1884 and 1887, the building was designed by Vienna architects and built for the Lazarist order. A wealthy patron provided funding for this major religious community project.
Culture
The building now serves as a Seventh-day Adventist congregation space, with interior features adapted for adult baptism by immersion. This shift in religious use has shaped how the space functions and appears to visitors today.
Practical
The building is located on U Jánského kamene street in the Perštýn neighborhood, near the historical Jánský kámen stone. Keep in mind that regular services take place, so visiting may depend on whether gatherings or events are currently happening.
Did you know?
The construction drew on significant financial resources and incorporated sandstone columns brought specially from Germany. These imported materials show the effort invested in the building's architectural design.
