Church of Saint Adalbert, Roman Catholic church in Vejprnice, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint Adalbert is a single-nave Baroque building with a dome, built in 1722 and attributed to František Maxmilián Kaňka or his apprentice Ignác Prée. Its west-facing tower, 37 metres high, is topped by a grey onion dome with a gilded cross and apple. The east front rises to the roof ridge and is flanked by two stone statues; inside are three altars, a marble font and a pulpit whose top is carried by two angels holding the Ten Commandments.

A Gothic church from 1355 collected tithes from the Vejprnice parish; the first curé is recorded in 1377. A wooden church in the marshes was later rebuilt on the site of the old sheepfold. The present church was built in 1722 for František Václav Count of Wrtby, attributed to František Maxmilián Kaňka or his pupil Ignác Prée.

The church is named after Saint Adalbert, the patron of the building; the largest of the three bells in the tower bears his name, while another is called Mary and a third, the morning bell, has no name. A small death bell hangs in the tower lantern. The altarpiece above the crucifix shows scenes from Adalbert's life.

The church stands in the centre of Vejprnice, with its tower facing west. A wooden footbridge connects it to the parish house. The north side entrance is blocked by the altar of St John of Nepomuk, so use the main east entrance or the south side entrance.

The church's main altar stands at the west end, unlike most rural churches, whose altars face east. The tower, 37 m high, holds three bells: the largest bears the patron's name, another is called Maria, and the morning bell has no name. A small death bell hangs in the lantern above.
