Brno
The Church of Saints John the Baptist and John the Evangelist, commonly known as Kostel sv. Janů, is a Roman Catholic church built in the 13th century as part of the Minorite monastery in Brno's historic centre. It was remodelled in Baroque style by architect Moritz Grimm in 1729–1733, gaining a single nave with a new vaulted ceiling. The complex also includes a Loreto chapel with the Holy House and Holy Stairs, and has been a protected cultural monument since 1964.
