Church of All Saints - Orechov, Czech Republic - Roman Catholic Churches on Waymarking.com

The original Gothic church of All Saints was built in Orechov in 1317. In the years 1704 and 1705 it was partially modified in the Baroque style. Over time, the old church no longer had sufficient capacity, so at the end of the 19th century it was decided to build a new church. The old one was demolished after the last service on February 26, 1899, and a neo-Romanesque three-nave church was built in its place. The construction was completed on November 11, 1899, and was consecrated on July 6, 1900 by the Bishop of Brno, František Saleský Bauer. At the end of the Second World War, the most difficult battles of the battle of Orechov took place near the church, and German soldiers had an observatory in its tower. Like most of the village, the church was severely damaged and restored after the war.

Stavba byla dokoncena 11. listopadu 1899, vysvecen byl 6. cervence 1900 brnenským biskupem Františkem Saleským Bauerem.

Podobne jako vetšina obce byl kostel težce ponicen, po válce byl obnoven.
