Prague

Loreta

  Lorentánské nám. 7     more than a year ago
One of the country's most famous places of pilgrimage, this chapel is just a quick walk from the main entrance to the castle. Built between 1626-1720, this Baroque building contains, among other icons and objects, a painting of a bearded lady, ornate friezes, bejewelled icons and a high quota of chubby-cheeked cherubs. The small museum also houses a collection of diamond ostensories. Within the main chapel there is the brickwork supposedly from the original Loreto in Italy which was flown over from Italy by some well-meaning angels. Blasphemers take note - the split in the wall was supposedly caused by a thunderbolt fired off at one of your kind.
