To continue from last article, this is the second part of the three about my visit in Olomouc, Czech. Here is Chinese version.


St. Moritz Church

St. Moritz Church is a late Gothic architecture, and the modern building was constructed in 14th century. Actually there had been a church here when people lived in Olomouc. Just it was once ruined in the fire and then rebuilt in 14th century.

St. Michael Church

I found St. Michael Church when I was looking for other fountains after travel guide. Then I didn't find my target fountain but saw this church. Obviously the centre of church is St. Michael, the archangel in Bible, but around are many sculptures about St. Mary.
