ST. NICHOLAS' CHURCH (Chrám Svatého Mikuláše) This beautiful Baroque Church was built by Jesuits in the 18th Century as a move in the Catholic Church's counter-Reformation.  The church houses a dizzying array of statues and paintings.  The ceiling holds a 16,146 square foot fresco, depicting the apotheosis of St. Nicholas.  Mozart played St. Nicholas' 2500 pipe organ a visit to the city in 1787. 

Open Daily 9-4:30.  Guided tours are available.
