General Description There are three St. Nicholas churches in Prague. Construction of St. Nicholas Church Lesser Town Square began in 1703 on the site of the former Parish Church of St. Nicholas, the records for which date back to 1283.
St. Nicholas Church lies at the centre of the Lesser Town Square (Malostranske namesti) and is the largest of Prague's churches founded by the Jesuits.
Front Description Baroque style is a predominant feature of the Old Town Square and is probably more prominent than the religious presence of the church of St. Nicholas. This is no surprise when you consider that the author of this monumental architectural composition with the dome and with two steeples in the forefront was the famous architect and a builder – Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer.
