Church of Saint Joseph, Catholic church in Voletiny, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Joseph is a Roman Catholic pseudo-Romanesque building in Voletiny, part of Trutnov, within the Trutnov I parish. It has a rectangular nave with a slightly narrower semicircular presbytery and a flat-ceilinged interior. A slender 35-metre tower rises above the entrance facade, and the cemetery adjoins the church on two sides.

A chapel on the site was already considered dilapidated by the late 19th century. When the cemetery was founded in 1895, the village of Voletiny funded a new church in the Neo-Romanesque style to replace it. After decades of neglect, partial repairs were made in 1993–1994, and a full restoration in 2004–2009 ended with the church's reconsecration on 22 March 2009 by auxiliary bishop Josef Kajnek.

The church holds Sunday Mass once a month and otherwise serves mainly for funeral rites, reflecting its position beside the Voletiny cemetery. A bell from 1803, probably from the earlier chapel, hangs in the tower; other bells were requisitioned in 1916 and 1942. A small bell also hangs in the sanctus turret above the cemetery mortuary.

The building is an active religious space managed by the Diocese of Hradec Králové and regularly used for worship services. Visitors should follow standard church etiquette and dress respectfully when entering.

The tower bell dates from 1803 and likely came from the chapel that stood here before the church. Other bells were removed in the wartime requisitions of 1916 and 1942; a small bell still hangs in the sanctus turret above the cemetery mortuary.
