Church of Saint John the Baptist, Baroque church in Radomyšl, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint John the Baptist stands on a hill southeast of Radomyšl. Its nave has an elliptical plan, with a west porch of equal height and a rectangular presbytery on the opposite side. Pilasters with Roman capitals divide the facades, and the west front has a shallow risalit with the coat of arms of Gundakar of Dietrichstein above the entrance.

A medieval chapel is said to have preceded the church; in the mid-16th century the parish priest Mikuláš Křížek had a stone church with five small chapels and a hermitage built. As pilgrims multiplied, Grand Prior Gundakar Poppo of Dietrichstein had it replaced in 1733 by a new Baroque church designed by Giuseppe Bartolomeo Scotti and built under Anselmo Lurago, finished in 1738.

The church is a pilgrimage site linked to a legend of a medieval chapel; the priest Mikuláš Křížek built a walled church with five small chapels and a hermitage here after the mid-16th century. Its exceptional acoustics attract musicians, and the closing scenes of the 1994 fairy-tale film Princezna ze mlejna were shot in the surroundings.

Visitors should check opening times in advance, as they can vary throughout the year. The local tourism office in Radomyšl can provide current information about visits and guided tour options.

The church's exceptional acoustics draw musicians, and in 1994 the final scenes of the fairy-tale film Princezna ze mlejna were shot in the surrounding area. The building has had no major architectural changes since its completion in 1738, only renovations in 1895 and after 1995.
