Kostel sv. Barbory

Pěkný kostel :-)

The ancient village of Pavlov, located at the foot of the ruins of Děvičky (Dívčí hrady, can be seen on the mountain on the right), since 1334 is included in the Mikulov estate. Pavlov has the status of a historical heritage with traditional village houses and wine cellars. In the middle of the main square is the church of St. Barbara, focused on the situation on the ground. That is why his presbytery is facing not to the east, but to the south-west, behind it is the oldest part - the tower. Its multi-faceted completion with four turrets at the corners is not unusual for the late Gothic (15th-16th centuries) in South Moravia. The present church is a longitudinal one-nave building, built in 1742 (date on the tower). In 1829 the main facade was decorated with statues of the patroness of the church of St. Barbarians and two stone angels on the sides. The construction and decoration of the temple was patronized by the Dietrichstein from Mikulov.

The Church of St. Barbara is the dominant feature of Pavlov. In the village square, its orientation adapts to the sloping terrain. Its presbytery is not facing east, but southwest. Behind the presbytery is a tower, the oldest part of the church. The current church was built in 1742. In 1829, the Classicist modification of the main facade followed. The plaster of the church declines over time. It would like an outdoor renovation ...
