Pilgrimage Church of St John of Nepomuk

Zelená Hora / Žďár nad Sázavou

Not a long run from Brno this one. Mostly on the terribly rutted and truck laden D1/E50 northwest from Brno in the direction of Prague and then off on S37 to Zelená Hora.

The church stands on a hill. We parked on the side of the main road. it was quite a walk and then red faced we saw we could have turned off a little earlier and parked nearby. Still. We got to puff and pant in hot weather up the hill and back again. The nearby cafe was closed and so we couldn't get a drink or a coffee....

This is a UNESCO heritage site and if you are in the region it is worth the trip to see the architecture.
