St.Maurice Church
St.Maurice Church is national cultural monument. The former town parish church was begun in 1412 and completed in the 16th century. The richly vaulted - 22 meters wide, 54 m high - and two asymmetrical square towers make this church unmatched by any other late Gothic monument in central and northern Moravia. During the baroque renovation of the church, the largest pipe organ in Central Europe was installed (1745) from workshop of Michael Engler.
