The former Capuchin monastery with the church of St. Mary Magdalene

History: 

The former church of St. Mary Magdalene with a hospital for 12 poor patients and the chapel of St. Michala stands in the lower part of us. Arnošta from Pardubice. It was founded in 1359 by the Prague archbishop Arnošt of Pardubice at the initiative of a local unknown burgher.

The church was destroyed and rebuilt several times during its existence, but in 1785 the church was deconsecrated and subsequently served for non-ecclesiastical purposes (granary, depository, warehouse).

Present: the monastery is privately owned and inaccessible to the public
