Church of Saint James the Greater, Cultural monument and church in Brod nad Tichou, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint James the Greater is a single-nave, Baroque-modified Gothic church standing on a hill east of Brod nad Tichou. A square tower rises at its west front, and a five-sided presbytery with buttresses closes the east end. The presbytery has cross-ribbed vaulting and star-ribbed vaulting at its end, with pointed windows and a wall tabernacle; the nave carries cross-ribbed vaulting and paintings dated 1817 by Kryštof Maur Fuchs.

The presbytery is the oldest surviving part, built at the end of the 15th or start of the 16th century; written mentions of a church here appear in 1332, 1352 or 1369. The Baroque nave with its front tower was added later. A costly reconstruction took place at the end of the 20th century, and the altar, wall tabernacle and cemetery wall were restored recently.

The church is a filial church of the Roman Catholic parish of Planá u Mariánských Lázní in the Plzeň diocese, so regular services are held by the parish clergy rather than a resident priest. The nave's vault carries paintings from 1817 by Kryštof Maur Fuchs, a local decorative work a visitor can look up at.

The church stands on a hill on the eastern side of Brod nad Tichou, not in the village centre, together with the cemetery, the former rectory and the site of a vanished castle. The main gate is in the western stretch of the surrounding wall, south of the tower; a second gate leads from the baroque rectory, and a third stands between the rectory and the cemetery.

The church stands on a hill on the eastern edge of the village together with the cemetery, the former parish house and the site of a vanished castle. According to local legend, its predecessor stood even further east than today's building.
