Church of Saint Dionysius

The Church of Saint Dionysius is a Baroque building in Horní Lhota with tall ceilings and an ornate interior from the 17th century. The central nave houses preserved religious objects and decorative pieces from that era.

The building was constructed in the 1670s when the Catholic Church regained influence after the Thirty Years' War. This was a time of rebuilding for the Bohemian region.

The church reflects building styles common to this region, with design choices that show local craftsmanship and ideas. You can see in details like ornaments and materials how the people who built and used this place shaped it.

You enter the building through the main entrance and step into a large, bright space. The interior is straightforward to explore and all main areas are accessible from the entry hall.

The building is one of the few rural Baroque examples from this period that has survived intact. Its rarity makes it a valuable window into the architectural history of this region.
