Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary

Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, Gothic church in Poběžovice, Czech Republic

The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is an oriented single-nave building with a polygonal choir, a sacristy on the south and a porch with oratory on the north. Its west facade is reinforced by four buttresses, and the nave interior has a flat wooden coffered ceiling and a wooden gallery on two pillars. The choir is vaulted with lunettes and decorated with stucco festoons and angel cartouches.

The church's late Gothic core dates to 1490, when it was founded by Dobrohost of Ronšperk, the estate's owner, who is buried inside; it served as the burial place of the holders of Ronšperk Castle. In 1632 the burnt-out church was rebuilt in Baroque form, and around 1900 the tower to the right of the entrance was taken down.

The church was founded by Dobrohost of Ronšperk, the owner of the estate, who is buried inside; it served as the burial place of the holders of Ronšperk Castle. The oratory carries the coat of arms of the Coudenhove family. Three heraldic cartouches decorate the triumphal arch, and the vault holds stucco festoons with angel figures.

The church stands on a slight rise in the centre of Poběžovice, surrounded by buildings, with the parish office in the adjoining parish house at náměstí Míru 54. It is in regular use for services and cultural events, so time a visit around them. Since 2005 Poběžovice has been the seat parish for the merged parishes of the Domažlice vicariate.

The church was founded by Dobrohost of Ronšperk, the owner of the estate, who is buried inside it; it served as the burial place of the holders of Ronšperk Castle. Its oratory carries the coat of arms of the Coudenhove family, and a Gothic window survives in the sacristy.
