Churches and chapels

Dolní Moravice, Church of St. Jacob

The nave church of St. Jacob's in Dolní Moravice is first mentioned in 1351. The original medieval church stood on the same site and was first rebuilt in 1593 by master Joachim. The second, classicist reconstruction followed in 1795, since June 1794 the temple was struck by lightning seven times which damaged it considerably. The internal furnishings of the church are particularly interesting with an illusory wall altar with the image of St. James Elder by Johann Franz Greipel from before 1798. The area adjacent to the cemetery is surrounded by a plastered brick boundary wall with a wrought-iron gate, a mortuary and a stone staircase.
