About the venue: Church of St. Wenceslas

The Church of St. Wenceslas in Opava is a former Dominican church consecrated in 1336. After the monastery was dissolved during the Josephine reforms in 1786, it served as a military warehouse and later as a theatre props store. Today it is managed by the municipal cultural organisation OKO and, as a deconsecrated venue with a capacity of 400–600 people, hosts concerts, exhibitions, social events and civil wedding ceremonies.
