The third Gothic church in Krupka, the so-called Cemetery. This handsome late Gothic building with Renaissance elements, which you will find in the interior (for example, frescoes, coffered ceiling, etc.), has been restored and worth a visit. Nice entrance gate to the romantic mining cemetery.

The impressive "mountain" single-nave church with a pentagonal presbytery with a high steep roof and an onion-shaped turret was consecrated in 1516 and until 1624 it was a tabernacle of the Evangelical Evangelicals, since 1640 the church has been Catholic. In the Baroque period, an extension to the chancel was built, which served cemetery purposes and also the bell tower. The church was renovated in the years 1851-1854 and then a major reconstruction took place in the 1930s. In 1615, Georg Klippel, a wealthy merchant from Krupa, had a beautiful entrance gate built. After the Thirty Years' War, the church of St. Anny is the only one preserved to all parishioners until 1684, when the town church of the Assumption of P.M.

In the church of St. Anny is the burial of 327 victims of the plague epidemic of 1680 and 37 victims of cholera from 1850. Interesting: the church is located in the Libušín district.
