The town is situated close to the well-known spa resort Mariánské Lázne and nearby another spa called Konstantinovy Lázne.
The church was originally a three-nave church built in the Gothic style in the south part of the historic town. The main portal from the late Roman time in the middle of the 13th century was completed with a cross vault in the 14thcentury.
The church was rebuilt in the Baroque style in the sixties and the eighties of the 18th century by the Planá estate owners. During that time it was the local painter W. T. S. Schmidt.
