Konkatedrála Nanebevzetí Panny Marie

The architectural sacral gem of Opava has its origins in the Middle Ages and is connected with the Order of German Knights. They acquired their land in Opava as early as 1204. The Church of Our Lady has been the main parish church since the early days of Opava. Today the church is called a cathedral. But why? A tour of the only concathedral in the Czech Republic will tell you that too.

Practical information:

• Lecturer: Petr Tesař (Land Archives in Opava)
• Estimated tour duration: 60–90 minutes
• Buy a ticket for Go Out, at the reception of the Municipal House and, if necessary, sell it on the spot.
