Lutheran church in Dolní Bludovice, Lutheran church in Bludovice, Czech Republic.
The Lutheran church in Dolní Bludovice is a classical religious building with white walls and traditional architectural details located in the Karviná District of Moravia-Silesia. Its design displays the simple, dignified proportions typical of Protestant churches from the 18th century.
The church was built following the Patent of Toleration in 1781, when the Lutheran community established their parish after a long period without a dedicated place of worship. Its construction marked the end of religious restrictions in this Silesian area.
The church serves the Silesian Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Confession and connects its congregation with Czech and Polish believers. It reflects the religious diversity that has been lived in this region over generations.
The church is located on Selská street in Bludovice and remains an active place of worship and community gathering. Visitors should note that it is a functioning parish, so access depends on scheduled services or special visiting arrangements.
The church grounds include three separate cemeteries serving different religious communities: one for Lutherans, one for Roman Catholics, and one for Polish believers. This layout reflects how different faiths coexisted side by side in this area over many generations.
