Baroque parish office in Vinor belongs among the most beautiful buildings of this small Prague' suburb district.
The first written note about existence of parish office building in Vinor is from 1680, despite long history of local parish - we know name of Vinor' priest Martin from 1339. Depicted Baroque 2-storey building, erected in 1738, is probably designed by workshop of leading Czech Baroque architect František Maxmilian Kanka. Building, damaged by bomb in the end of WWII was completely reconstructed in 2001. On the parish office front facade you can find a bronze memorial tablet commemorating meeting of local representatives of the anti-communist underground movement in the 1950s.
