Church of Saint Procopius

Church of Saint Procopius, Roman Catholic church in Stříbrnice, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Procopius in Stříbrnice is a Romanesque Revival parish church built in 1906–1908 at 255 m above sea level on a slope above the village. Its facade is painted in the blue and white of the Virgin Mary. The single nave has two sacristies and a presbytery separated by an oak railing; the 33.3 m tower holds three bells, and a cemetery adjoins the east side.

The church was built in Romanesque Revival style between 1906 and 1908. The Jednota sv. Prokopa association was founded in 1906 to promote its construction, and deputy Antonín Stojan helped secure the building permit. The foundation stone was consecrated in October 1907, and the church was consecrated on 11 November 1908. The parish was established on 4 July 1910, with Martin Bogar as first priest; Leopold Berchtold, owner of the Buchlov estate, was a donor.

The church is dedicated to Saint Procopius, a name carried by the Jednota sv. Prokopa association founded in 1906 to raise funds for its construction. The parish itself was established on 4 July 1910, with Martin Bogar, a native of Blatnice, as its first priest. A nearly two-metre oak statue of Saint Procopius by Slovak carver Zdenka Jančia stands in front of the building.

The church stands on a slope at 255 m above sea level, with the cemetery adjoining its east side and the parish house about 20 metres to the southwest. The tower reaches 33.3 metres. A wooden statue of St Procopius, nearly two metres tall, was placed in front of the church in 2019.

The 33.3-metre tower hangs three bells whose history is one of loss and replacement: all three were requisitioned in World War I, and two of the postwar replacements were seized in World War II. Villagers paid for the current bells, while a 3 kg bell sits inside near the sacristy.
