Church of Saint Wenceslaus, Baroque church in Tišnov, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Wenceslaus is a single-nave Gothic building from the second half of the 15th century, standing on raised ground at the eastern edge of Tišnov's historic centre. It was baroqued in the 18th century. Its square tower, originally a separate bell tower from the 1540s, was joined to the church in 1846–1853, when the nave was lengthened by about 10 metres and a Marian chapel added on the south side. A Gothic rib vault survives on the tower's first floor.

A single-nave Gothic church from the second half of the 15th century replaced an earlier wooden church first documented in 1239. It was baroquified in the 18th century. The square tower, originally a free-standing bell tower from the 1540s, was joined to the church in 1846–1853, when the nave was lengthened by about 10 metres and a Marian chapel added.

The church is the parish and deanery church of Tišnov. The main altar holds a painting of Saint Wenceslaus and a side altar one of Saints Cyril and Methodius, both by the Viennese Nazarene painter Ignatz Dullinger, paid for by Tišnov native and provincial deputy JUDr. Jan Dvořáček.

The church stands on raised ground at the eastern edge of the historic centre. The square tower, originally a separate 16th-century bell tower, is now part of the nave. Look for the surviving section of the churchyard wall with loopholes in front of the building.

The square tower began as a separate bell tower built in the 1540s and was joined to the church only during works in 1846–1853, when the nave was lengthened by about 10 metres. Its first floor keeps a Gothic rib vault. The oldest bell dates from 1666, the largest (900 kg) from 1672.
