Kostel Panny Marie Královny míru

Kostel Panny Marie Královny míru, Modern church in Lhotka, Czech Republic.

Kostel Panny Marie Královny míru is a two-nave Roman Catholic parish church built in 1937 in a Constructivist style, with a prominent square tower. Inside, a choir gallery holds the organ, and behind the altar stands a column bearing a replica of the Virgin Mary statue from the Old Town Square Marian Column. The presbytery windows show stained glass of the Church of Our Lady before Týn, St Wenceslas and St Agnes of Bohemia.

Built in 1937 in a Constructivist style, the church is one of twelve churches erected in memory of the Marian Column destroyed by a crowd on Old Town Square. The column was wrongly seen as a symbol of Austrian rule, though it recalled Prague's rescue from Swedish troops at the end of the Thirty Years' War. President Masaryk condemned its destruction after arriving in Prague on 22 December 1918.

The church's name refers to the Virgin Mary as Queen of Peace, a title tied to the Marian Column destroyed in Old Town Square in 1918. Inside, Karel Stádník's relief Stations of the Cross depict Christ as poor, hungry, naked and thirsty in his brothers, and recall the crimes of fascism and communism.

The church stands in Prague 4-Lhotka, on the slope above the Vltava valley near the Lhotka housing estate; the square tower makes it easy to find from the street. It is an active parish church, so visits are best timed around services rather than assumed at fixed hours. The interior is entered from the nave, with the organ gallery above the entrance and the presbytery with the altar at the far end.

The replica of the Virgin Mary statue stands on a column behind the altar in the nave, not in the sacristy. Carver Bohuslav Bek made it after a model by Břetislav Benda, based on the statue destroyed on Old Town Square in 1918.
