Holy Trinity Church, Fulnek
The Church of the Holy Trinity (Czech: Kostel Nejsvětější Trojice) is a Roman Catholic parish church in Fulnek, Czech Republic. Built in the 18th century, it is architecturally and culturally significant as one of the most valuable baroque buildings of northeast Moravia. It is situated on the site of the original parish church, whose existence was documented in the 13th century.The new church was constructed in response to a growing cult of devotion around the local portrait of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is believed by some that the portrait shed tears and that several people were miraculously cured after praying in front of the portrait.The architect of the church was Nikolaus Thalherr. Its interior was decorated with ceiling frescos by Joseph Ignatz Sadler, and with paintings by Ignác Viktorin Raab and Felix Ivo Leicher. Other artists have worked on various features of the church.
