Tobiáš Jan Becker (*July 15, 1649 in Králíky - †September 11th, 1710 in Hradec Králové) was Roman Catholic priest and 5th bishop of Hradec Králové.
Complex of Mountain of Our Lady Convent is one of most important pieces of the Baroque sacral architecture in Eastern Bohemia. The complex was founded at an important pilgrimage site on the Hora Matky Boží (Mountain of Our Lady) in Králíky. In 1696 Tobiáš Jan Becker founded a church dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. The church was completed in 1701; and then construction of the Servites’ convent and Calvary started. In 1708 eight chapels were built, lining up from the town Králíky to the main entrance to the convent.
