Olomouc Cathedral

St. Wenceslas Cathedral was founded in the 12th century in the Romanesque style and was later rebuilt in the Gothic style. At the beginning of the 16th century, a presbytery from the early Baroque period was founded. At the end of the 19th century, the church underwent a radical reconstruction in the neo-Gothic style that gave it its present appearance.

St. Moritz Church

The church of St. Moritz was built in the 15th century on the remains of a Romanesque church first built in the 11th century. In the second half of the 19th century, the church was completely restored and an attempt was made to enlarge the two neo-Gothic towers on the west façade.
