The architecture of St.Peter and Paul

#naturalbeauty St. Peter and Paul church located in the Brno old town in Czech Republic 🇨🇿. It is a Roman Catholic cathedral located on the Petrov hill in the Brno-střed district of the city of Brno. It is commonly referred to locally as simply "Petrov". It is the seat of the Diocese of Brno and a national cultural monument that is one of the most important pieces of architecture in South Moravia. The interior is mostly Baroque in style, while the exterior shell is Gothic that dates mostly from the 14th century, and its impressive 84-metre-high towers were constructed to the Gothic Revival designs of the architect August Kirstein between 1901 and 1909. The original cathedral site dates to the 11th century. The oldest elements of the interior equipment include a boxed tabernacle in the Marian Chapel dating from 1652, later altered in 1783 by the sculptor Ondřej Schweigl, and the marble body of the baptistery from 1656 by Simon Brandt. It is worth to visit while you’re visiting in Brno city. #czechrepublic
