Evangelický kostel
Czechia
The first thing you notice in Hranice, in the far western corner of Bohemia near Cheb, is this tower. The Evangelical church is the town's main landmark, and the municipal cemetery presses up against it, so a walk around the building is also a walk among the town's graves. Nobody knows exactly when it was founded. It began as a Catholic chapel dedicated to St Martin, probably in the late 14th century, and only became the Protestant church you see today through centuries of rebuilding and changes of faith.
