Description

The Church of St. Gallus stands in the Havelska Street in Prague's Old Town. It was built on the orders of King Wenceslas I, shortly after his accession to the throne in 1230.

The original Romanesque church was often modified (in the 14th and later 17th centuries), principally by John Dominic Orsi and Martin Lurago. The current Baroque facade was constructed between 1723 - 1738.

The church is the burial place of Karel Škréta.
