Chapel of Saint John of Nepomuk
Chapel of Saint John of Nepomuk, Religious chapel in Tihava, Czech Republic.
The Chapel of Saint John of Nepomuk stands at Tvrziště Na Baště, featuring Baroque architectural elements and traditional Czech religious design patterns throughout its structure.
Built between 1734 and 1737, the chapel replaced an earlier church from the 1640s and underwent substantial renovations by architects Antonín Baum and Bedřich Münzberger in 1878.
The chapel contains fourteen detailed panels illustrating major events from Saint John of Nepomuk's life, representing important aspects of Czech religious heritage.
Visitors can access the nave during regular hours, while full chapel exploration requires advance arrangements with the local priest for guided tours.
Financial constraints during construction resulted in the absence of painted ceilings and delayed the addition of steeples until 1741.
