Dominican Monastery in Olomouc
Dominican Monastery in Olomouc, Religious monastery in Olomouc, Czech Republic.
The Dominican Monastery stands in central Olomouc with four courtyards, gardens, and Gothic architectural elements preserved through centuries of modifications.
Founded in 1240 under King Ottokar II of Bohemia, the monastery underwent substantial reconstruction after fires in 1723 altered its original Gothic structure.
The monastery complex contains preserved medieval wall paintings, Gothic portals, and architectural features representing different periods of Czech religious architecture.
