Church of Saint Wenceslaus, Roman Catholic church in Křakov, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint Wenceslaus is a single-nave Gothic building with a polygonal choir and a two-storey tower attached to the north side. Its core, including the north wall of the nave with a portal, dates from around 1340. The west facade has a pointed portal and a triangular gable with a stylized shell and eye motif.

The Church of Saint Wenceslaus is an original Gothic building from the first quarter of the 14th century; the core of the nave's north wall with its portal dates from around 1340. A sacristy was added in the Renaissance period, followed by a large Baroque rebuilding. The church was altered in the 17th century and again in the second half of the 19th century. Until 31 December 1949 it was a parish church; it is now a filial church of the Roman Catholic parish of Horšovský Týn.

The church is dedicated to Saint Wenceslaus, patron saint of the Czech lands. Until 31 December 1949 it was a parish church; today it is a filial church of the Roman Catholic parish of Horšovský Týn, so services are held here only occasionally. The village of Křakov falls under the municipality of Mířkov, near the Sedmihoří protected landscape area.

The church stands on a slight rise in the centre of Křakov, surrounded by the remains of a cemetery wall, with Křakovský potok flowing nearby and the Sedmihoří protected landscape area close by. It is a filial church of the Roman Catholic parish of Horšovský Týn, so services are not held here regularly.

The church was a parish church until 31 December 1949 and is now a filial church of the Roman Catholic parish of Horšovský Týn. In the north wall of the chancel a stone plate with a pointed arch holds a carved cross bouquet in shallow relief, flanked by pinnacles.
