About the venue: Kostel Navštívení Panny Marie

The baroque pilgrimage church of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary in Skoky, near Žlutice, is one of the most significant sacred sites in north-west Bohemia. Built in the first half of the 18th century, it features valuable frescoes and altar paintings. After decades of neglect, the church underwent extensive restoration and now hosts both religious pilgrimages and cultural events.
