Beautiful baroque building adjacent to the castle

The chapel of the Křížovnický chateau serves as a church of Dobřichovice, together with the whole castle it is nicely maintained inside, outside and surrounding area and has tasteful baroque decoration.

Beautiful baroque building closely ties to the castle building. The history of the place dates back to 1420, when there used to stand a fortress with the Chapel of St. Wenceslas. Later Berka of Dubá built a Renaissance chateau, which was built in the Baroque style after a fire. Today's chapel comes from this time.

The chapel of St. Jude Thaddeus (protector in dangerous diseases) forms the western wing of Dobřichov Castle. It is a single-nave Baroque building with a square vestibule. The first mention of the fortress, which protected the ford across the river Berounka, comes from 1420. Next to it was the chapel of St. Wenceslas. The parish church for the settlement of Dobřichovická used to be the Karlický church, dedicated to St. Procopius and St. Martin. The current chapel was built between 1677 and 1679 by means of members of the order, in the Renaissance style, was covered with shingles and did not exceed the height of the castle. This year the plague raged, which claimed many lives in the surrounding villages, but no one died in Dobřichovice and Prior Hynek Pospíchal promised to build a chapel if Dobřichovice continued to be spared. On May 18, 1779, the chateau and the chapel burned down. Restoration began immediately, and by November 1779, the chapel was under a roof. The builder Brachner and the carpenter Phanner took care of the construction of the new chapel. At the front of the chapel towards the chateau is a small sanctuary tower, in which 4 bells are hung - Prokop, Emanuel and Marie. The smallest bell "dying" in the highest part of the tower comes from the time the church was built. The Chapel of St. Judas Tadeáš (defender in dangerous diseases) forms the western wing of the Dobřichovice Chateau. It is a single-nave baroque building with a square hall. The first mention of the fortress, which protected the ford across the river Berounka, dates back to 1420. It was accompanied with the chapel of St. Wenceslas at that era. The parish church for the settlement of Dobrichovice used to be the temple of nearby Karlík village, dedicated to St. Prokop and St. Martin. The present chapel was built in the Renaissance style between 1677 and 1679 and financed by the Cross With the Red Star Order's members. It was covered with shingles and did not exceed the height of the castle. That year the plague was raging in the neighboring villages, but no one died in Dobřichovice, so Hynek Pospíchal made a promise to build a chapel if Dobřichovice were still spared. On May 18th, 1779 the castle and the chapel burned down. Brothers began immediately with renewal and until November 1779 the chapel was under the roof. The builder Brachner and the carpenter Phanner took care of the construction of the new chapel. On the front of the chapel towards the castle there is a small sanctuary tower, in which four bells are hung - Prokop, Emanuel and Marie. The smallest bell of the "dying" in the highest part of the tower comes from the time of the church.

The church is evidently related to the adjacent residence, referred to as Dobřichovice Chateau. Judge for yourself.
