The Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary and the Monastery of St. Augustine - Roudnice nad Labem

The monastery was founded by Bishop John IV from Dražice for the new order of Augustinian canons. The foundation stone was laid in 1333.

The monastery complex consists of the Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary and the building of its own convent, of which three wings of the cloister around the Garden of Eden yard, the chapter hall and the area of the former library all have been preserved. The church has the form of a basilica triple nave with a long choir. In the first half of the 18th century, there was a significant reconstruction in the style of the so-called Baroque Gothic. The vault of the main nave was lowered and the facade of the building was completed by two towers. When visiting Roudnice nad Labem, don't forget to go see this magnificent monument. Here, among other things, you can see the mysterious underground pond.
