Římskokatolická farnost-děkanství Teplice v Čechách, Catholic parish in Teplice, Czech Republic
The parish church occupies a central position at Castle Square in Teplice and features a three-nave basilica with a tower completed in 1707. The structure combines historical architectural elements and functions as a place for worship and community gathering.
The parish originates from a Benedictine convent established between 1156 and 1164, which included the Romanesque Church of St. John the Baptist. This convent formed the foundation for the religious presence that evolved over centuries.
The interior displays a main altar created by a Teplice craftsman around 1730, and contains an organ used for religious services and sacred music performances. The church serves as a gathering place where the musical tradition remains active in the community.
The parish office can be reached by phone at +420 417 531 041 or +420 730 179 021, and visitors may also contact them by email at farnost.teplice@dltm.cz. The central location at Castle Square makes the church easily accessible.
Three separate parishes - Teplice, Teplice-Šanov, and Teplice-Trnovany - function as a single community under Salesian administration since 1990. This merger demonstrates how religious structures adapt to serve local communities more effectively.
