The first was the church of St. Peter and St. Paul in Řeznovice that I had noticed passing by on a recce trip to the Templstejn area in the Jihlava valley south of Brno. I stopped at the church because it simply doesn’t look like aContinue reading “The Mysterious Řeznovice Church of Sts. Peter and Paul”
