Description
Fortified churches are an interesting type of sacred buildings. They served not only for religious purposes but also as strongholds in defense against enemies. In addition to traditional architectural elements, they also include fortification features, such as loopholes or reinforced walls. Their location often makes them a dominant feature of towns, villages, and landscapes. The second volume you now hold discusses fortified churches in the regions of Vysočina, Pardubice, South Moravia, Moravian-Silesia, Olomouc, and Zlín.
