All Saints church in Litoměřice

Beautiful church, nice Sunday Mass.

Beautiful church, in the center of Litoměřice. Amazing interior, decoration, and acoustics, in the church, so this church is definitely worth a visit.

Dean's church, originally Romanesque from the 12th century, gradually rebuilt into Gothic style in the 15-16th century and subsequently baroque in the 17th century. The father and son of Gulio and Octavio Broggi, builders of Italian descent, who have played a major role in the baroque city, are buried in the church.

The first mention of the church is from February 12, 1235 (part of the masonry from that time is preserved). At the beginning of the 15th century, the church had a main altar and six side altars, there was also a chapel of St. Catherine (1480) near today's tower. In the years 1570 - 75, three tent roofs were set up on the church, as we can see today. In 1686, the church was partially burned down and everything was temporarily modified so that it could serve its purpose. This temporary period lasted until the years 1717 - 24, when the whole church was baroqued according to the design of the builder Octavio Broggio, who is also allegedly buried in the church. The cemetery around the church was also closed. During the Baroque reconstruction of the church, the church was also connected to the town tower, which originally stood independently. There are now four bells hanging in the tower. The largest of them is the bell of Václav from 1501, Ptáček from 1512, Vojtěch from 1524 (transferred from the church of St. Adalbert in Litoměřice) and Martin from 1691 (transferred from the church of St. Martin in Mlékojedy).
