Church of Saint Bartholomew, Gothic church in Rejštejn, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Bartholomew is a stone structure featuring Gothic architectural elements with a central tower located in the Klatovy District. Its interior was redesigned during the 18th century to incorporate Baroque features while retaining the late Gothic framework.

The single-nave church with a Gothic presbytery dates from the second half of the 14th or first half of the 15th century, judged by the roof trusses of the presbytery and sacristy. It was first documented in writing in 1570. Substantial alterations were recorded in 1792, and in the 18th century the outdoor staircase with annex, sacristy, semicircular-tympanum portal and windows were reworked.

The church holds a rare 14th-century Gothic bell; two new bells were donated in 1994 by a Rejštejn native living in Bavaria. The parish priest Jakub Klostermann, youngest brother of the writer Karel Klostermann, served here, and the rectory was a meeting place for the Klostermann family. He is buried in the churchyard with his mother Charlotta, born Hauerová of the Abel glassmaking family.

The church stands on a small rise above the gold-bearing Losenice stream, not at the Vydra–Křemelná confluence, which lies below the town. A stone staircase leads up to the main cemetery gate, with a smaller gate in the middle of the southern wall. The surrounding cemetery wall reaches 4 m on the north side.

The church keeps a rare 14th-century Gothic bell; two new bells were donated in 1994 by a Rejštejn native living in Bavaria. A 15th-century Madonna statuette was stolen from the church in the 1950s and has not returned.
