📍 Kostel sv. Stanislava

About the venue

This baroque Roman Catholic parish church in Bolatice, in the Hlučín region, was consecrated in 1703 - traditionally to commemorate the passage of Polish King Jan Sobieski and his army on their way to relieve the Turkish siege of Vienna. It was expanded into a three-nave basilica in 1911-1912 and consecrated by Bishop Karel Wiesnar. The interior features baroque frescoes on the vaulted ceilings, and a wrought-iron cross from the 18th century stands by the side entrance. The complex, including its perimeter wall and the Chapel of St. John of Nepomuk, has been a listed monument since 1964.
