Description
Church of St Katherine of Alexandria. Autumn Prague by Jenny Rainbow.
Charles IV established this church in 1355 as part of the Augustine convent. Although the church's current Baroque appearance dates back to 1737 – 1741, certain Gothic elements still remain, such as the tall octagonal tower, nicknamed the "Prague minaret". The Church of St Katherine of Alexandria is located on the premises of the General University Hospital, and is under the religious administration of the Orthodox Church.

A beautiful autumn scene Jenny; I must have missed this part of the city!! I'm still workin gon my Prague portfolio (hundreds of images more to come) and I don't remember visiting this park. I will have to look into my collection after I come back from my trip in Oregon/Washington in a couple of weeks. Love this one!
