St. Nicholas Church (Kostel Sv. Mikuláse)

St. Nicholas Church (Kostel Sv. Mikuláse), a prime example of Prague baroque architecture, stands prominently on Lesser Town Square (Malostranské náměstí) in the Czech capital. Constructed between 1704 and 1755, it replaced a 13th-century Gothic church that was also dedicated to Saint Nicholas. The church’s imposing facade and intricate details exemplify the opulence of the baroque era. Visitors today can admire its grand interior, featuring ornate frescoes and sculptures, and experience the historical and architectural significance of this landmark.
