Church of Saint John of Nepomuk, Religious monument in Nové Mitrovice, Czech Republic

Church of Saint John of Nepomuk is a religious building with Baroque elements located in Nové Mitrovice. The structure features a carefully designed interior with a notable altar and detailed stone construction throughout.

Countess Anna Polyxena of Clary and Aldringen, née des Fours, who held the Spálené Poříčí estate from 1715, initiated the founding of the church, probably in 1722. It was built in the High Baroque style between 1722 and 1726, likely by the Plzeň architect Jakub Auguston. In 1749 she sold the estate to the Metropolitan Chapter of St Vitus in Prague, which owned and administered the church until the church reforms of 1850. The gallery, bell frame and sacristy vault date from 19th-century additions and renovations.

The village was first recorded in 1626 as Hutě, a settlement of eight miners' cottages working iron ore, with brief silver mining around 1700. The church's main altar holds a Baroque painting of Saint John of Nepomuk, reinstalled in 2017 after restoration. Above the main entrance, look for the stone portal with the alliance coat of arms of the Vratislavs of Mitrovice.

The church stands in the eastern part of Nové Mitrovice, surrounded on all sides by a cemetery that is separated from the village by a Baroque boundary wall. Access is through gates on the south and west sides. A free-standing mortuary stands northeast of the presbytery.

The main altar painting of Saint John of Nepomuk was restored and reinstalled in 2017. The church has been a protected cultural monument since 1958, together with the Baroque mortuary and the cemetery wall.
