It is an early medieval dome building located in Znojmo, Czech Republic. This dome shaped church consists of an elliptical nave and a semi-circular apse facing east. Its masonry is not made of traditional Romanesque stones, but carefully stacked with irregular dark quarry stones. The first mention of this building dates back to 1100, when Bohemian Duke Bo ř ivoy II held his wedding here. The function of the dome shaped church is not fully understood, but it is speculated that it may serve as a religious place of worship for the castle owner and his followers, as well as the surrounding area. The building was rebuilt in 1888.
