Louny

February RR from bitlzus

St. Nicolas Church in Louny is a roman-catholic, parochial church dedicated to Saint Nicolas. The 1517 fire destroyed the nave and damaged the tower of the original church. Afterwards it was designed and rebuilt by royal architect Benedikt Rejt. After it was finished in 1538, it became one of the supreme pieces of Czech late Gothic. The temple has three naves, with external support system, round archs and pyramid-shaped turrets.
