Kostel svatého Josefa, Neo-Gothic Catholic church in Janovice, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint Joseph is a single-nave Neo-Gothic building on a cross-shaped plan. A tall tower with a pyramidal roof holds the main entrance and adjoins the longitudinal nave, which ends in an octagonal presbytery. It was built to the design of builder Ferdinand Heinrich of Frýdek.

Janovice had no church of its own until Father Josef Loriš of Frýdek began collecting funds after 1873, gathering 40,250 gulden from the Silesian provincial committee, the Frýdek savings bank, Count Larisch and local citizens. The foundation stone was laid on 1 May 1887 in the presence of auxiliary bishop Franciszek Śniegoň, and builder Ferdinand Heinrich of Frýdek directed the work. The church was consecrated on 21 June 1891 by bishop's commissioner Karel Findinski, and a separate parish was established the following year with František Skotnica as first priest.

The church is dedicated to Saint Joseph; the parish was established in 1892, when Janovice left the Skalice parish union and František Skotnica became its first priest. A clock was installed on the tower in 1899. The four-metre cross was raised on the tower on 27 October 1889.

The church stands on a cross-shaped plan, with the main entrance in the tall tower topped by a pyramidal roof; the octagonal presbytery closes the nave at the far end. The four-metre cross on the tower and the clock installed in 1899 are best seen from outside. It is a filial church, so services are irregular; check locally before planning a visit inside.

The small tower was taken down in 2001 for safety reasons and its reconstruction was finished in January 2002, the same year the church was entered on the list of cultural monuments. A four-metre cross was raised on the main tower on 27 October 1889.
