Všech svatých
Czechia
The basilica of All Saints in Česká Lípa began as the church of an Augustinian monastery. It is still the town's main working Roman Catholic church, while the monastery buildings next door now house the Česká Lípa museum. Before you go in, look up at the tower. It ends in a plain pyramid, a provisional roof fitted after the onion dome burned in 1820. The dome was never rebuilt, and the stopgap has survived into the 21st century, so what you see is a temporary repair that outlasted its purpose.
