Chapel of Saint John of Nepomuk, Baroque chapel on Červená hora, Czech Republic

The Chapel of Saint John of Nepomuk features circular architectural forms and multiple altars adorned with detailed stucco work and religious sculptures.

The construction of this religious building commenced in 1719, following the Catholic Church's recognition of Saint John's preserved tongue as a sacred relic.

The chapel incorporates geometric shapes and the number five in its design, referencing the stars that appeared above Saint John's body after his death.

Visitors can reach the chapel through marked trails leading to Červená hora, with regular religious services and events held throughout the year.

The structure bears the influence of architect Jan Santini Aichel, who merged Baroque and Gothic elements to create a distinctive religious monument.
