Church of Saint Leonard

The stone walls of this medieval church structure remain standing within a forested area near thermal springs of Karlovy Vary, marking its original location.

First documented in 1246, this late Romanesque church served the local community until the surrounding village became depopulated, leading to its gradual decline.

The structure bears witness to the early Christian architecture of Bohemia and maintains its status as a protected cultural monument of the Czech Republic.

Visitors can locate the church ruins using coordinates 50°12'32.352"N and 12°51'0.248"E, accessible through marked trails in the protected landscape area.

The church ruins contain architectural elements from the Romanesque period, with remaining features providing evidence of medieval construction techniques in western Bohemia.
