monastery church of Our Lady of Sorrows

The church was built between 1724 and 1725 for the Convent of Elizabeth. It is one of a number of buildings designed by Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer in Prague ... The design was allegedly created by simplifying another, unrealized building. This was to be the Church of St. John of Nepomuk, who was to stand in Hradčany.

It is certainly not a place to turn off on your first visit to Prague, but if you pass by or if you already know other attractions in the city, it is worth visiting. It has a beautiful facade and the church, at the end of it, is really beautiful.

The church, part of the Baroque Elizabethan monastery, is built in the hillside, hence the entrance through the stairs. I think the venerable sisters have a lot to do with keeping the hospital running, and they don't have the resources to do the church maintenance.

Beautiful church, I only saw it from the outside but I was very interested

The exterior facade is relatively simple and unobtrusive, the entrance is not wheelchair accessible, it is a staircase. Inside, however, there is a surprisingly spacious and wonderfully preserved, including all the equipment, a preserved Baroque temple, which was probably saved from the communist rampage as part of the Apolinar Hospital. The church is inaccessible outside worship, but its visit is a great experience.
