Church of the Providence of God in Šenov

Church of the Providence of God in Šenov, Religious monument in Šenov, Czech Republic

The Church of the Providence of God in Šenov is a Roman Catholic Baroque church built in 1764 to a design attributed to master builder Jakub Pánek, with construction finished in 1765. Stone for the walls came from the Polská Ostrava estate. It is protected as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic and has been called the "Baroque pearl of Silesia".

The foundation stone was blessed on 8 November 1764 by Karel Josef Ibram of Suchá, archpriest of Frýdek, and the church was built in under a year using stone from the Polská Ostrava estate, following a design attributed to master builder Jakub Pánek. It was consecrated on 9 August 1772 by Wrocław bishop Filip Gotthard Schaffgotsch. It is a protected cultural monument of the Czech Republic.

The church is known as the "baroque pearl of Silesia", a name tied to its 1764 design attributed to master builder Jakub Pánek. Its interior decoration was made by Jan Schubert (around 1743–1792), the subject of a 2016 study on the church's furnishings. The building also served as the family necropolis of the Skrbenský of Hříště family.

The building is accessible from nearby towns by public transportation or car and sits in an easily reached location within the community. Visitors should plan their visit during times when the interior is open to the public to view the space.

The church is also called the "baroque pearl of Silesia", and its interior decoration was made by Jan Schubert (around 1743–1792), a fact documented in a 2016 study on the monuments of the Těšín principality.
