Church of St Paul (August Kirstein 1886)
This neo-Gothic church was dedicated to St Paul in honour of the former director of the Vítkovice Ironworks, Paul Kupelwieser. The first part to be built was the church tower – which served as a water tower and an observation deck for the local fire brigade – and the three-nave church was then built around it.
