Ursuline monastery in Liberec, Catholic monastery in Kristiánov, Czech Republic
The Ursuline monastery in Liberec is a complex located in the Kristiánov district that combines residential and religious buildings with the Church of the Sacred Heart at its center. The compound displays Baroque architectural features typical of Central European religious structures from that era.
The monastery was established during a period of Catholic expansion in the region and served as a religious center for the community for many generations. In the 20th century, its function changed when it was converted to serve different community needs beyond its original monastic purpose.
Following its religious origins, the monastery transformed into a health center while maintaining its architectural and historical elements for public appreciation.
The complex is located in the Kristiánov district and can be reached by public transportation from central Liberec. Visitors should be aware that portions of the site remain in active use for community services.
The monastery was founded by the Ursulines, a religious order known for their commitment to education and widely present throughout the Habsburg territories. This educational heritage remains a defining part of the site's identity.
