Super
If you come from the northwest (from Republic Square), you will see the facade of the original cemetery or hospital oriented Renaissance chapel, which is not much different from the others. But just bypass the building and you will see an interesting and quite unique thing - an atypical attached triangular baroque sacristy, which is probably the work of J. B. Santini and was built around 1715. We can beautifully see how even the slightest tasks solved a brilliant architect with distinctive invention and elegance. Moreover, the solution of sacristies was one of Santini's favorite themes. In addition to the typical arching of the roof truss, the sacristy shows unique features of its creation - especially a window in the shape of a spherical triangle. The interior of the church is decorated with a Baroque altar and murals. At the time of my visit, the interior of the building underwent a reconstruction, but also because of it I could look there. The space around the church served as a cemetery until 1910. Today there is a nicely landscaped urn grove with part of the original enclosure wall.

The Cemetery Late Baroque Church was formerly the center of the Upper Suburb. It was demolished during the absurd redevelopment event of the 1960s and 1970s, which made the city almost all historical. The church then served as a ceremonial hall, and only in the 1990s historic equipment was returned and the church was consecrated again.
I go there almost every day for my beloved wife and daughter
Very nice.
