Church of Saint Henry, Catholic church in Karviná, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint Henry stretched 66.2 meters in length and 34 meters in width, constructed with bricks on sandstone foundation.

Construction started in June 1893 under architect Bohuslav Černý's plans, with Count Heinrich Larisch-Mönnich contributing 300,000 crowns to the project.

The marble main altar featured Saint Henry, while side altars displayed images of Saint Barbara and Saint Francis of Assisi installed in 1898.

The church provided space for 4,000 worshippers until mining activities caused structural damage, leading to its closure in March 1955.

Despite being registered as an artistic architectural monument in November 1951, the building underwent demolition in October 1960.
