Church of St. Thomas

This former Augustinian monastery was founded in the year 1350 by the margrave Jan Jindřich Lucemburský, brother of Emperor Charles IV, and his son Jošt. The church should have served as the crypt for their House. However, only Jan Jindřich and his son are buried there. During the Thirty Years' War the church was quite badly damaged. The church was re-built in the years 1665-75 according to the designs of Jan Křtitel Erna. St. Thomas Church became the parish church for expanding suburbs in the year 1784. First-class artworks can be seen in the church. Without any doubt, the picture at the main altar of Christ's Appearance to the Apostles, dating from the year 1764, belongs among them.
