Church of Saint George in Dušníky

Church of Saint George in Dušníky, Romanesque Revival church in Rudná, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint George in Dušníky is a Romanesque Revival church built between 1908 and 1910 to plans by architect Arnošt Živný, standing on a concrete slab atop the artificial hill Homole. It replaced a Baroque church of the same dedication demolished in 1904. The oriented building has a square tower in its western facade, and 52 stone steps lead up to it.

A chapel dedicated to Saint George stood on Homole hill from the 13th century; it was repaired in 1595 and replaced by a larger Baroque church built in 1687–1688 and consecrated on 4 July 1690 by Bishop Jan Dlouhoveský. That church cracked because the hill is made of loose earth and the nearby Prague–Beroun railway shook it, so it was demolished in 1904. The present church was built in 1908–1910 to plans by architect Arnošt Živný and consecrated on 12 June 1910 by Bishop František Brusák.

The church keeps the dedication of the chapel that stood on Homole from the 13th century, repaired in 1595 and replaced by a larger building less than a century later. The Baroque church consecrated on 4 July 1690 by Bishop Jan Dlouhoveský kept the same patron, and the present church, blessed on 12 June 1910 by Bishop František Brusák, continues the line.

The church stands on the Homole mound in Dušníky, reached by 52 stone steps up the slope. The city of Rudná took over the surroundings for long-term use and plans to repair the staircase and lay out park planting. Regular services are held inside.

The hill Homole beneath the church is often called a burial mound, but its origin is disputed among historians. Chronicles link it to the 1179 Battle of Loděnice, yet no purpose or date is certain. The church stands on a concrete slab, built between 1908 and 1910 to designs by architect Arnošt Živný.
