The Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius is a classic example of 20th century neo-Renaissance architecture and is considered one of the gems of Karlín, a district of Prague, Czech Republic. It is located at the intersection of Karlínské námestí and Stepánska. Desribed as neo-Byzantine, the impressive building was constructed in the late 19th century by architect Antonín Turek, who combined elements of both the East and the West. The façade stands proudly of colorful marble and face bricks, while the interior boasts individual symbols over the windows and stunning stained glass windows. Inside, the church's altar and pulpit are decorated with red marble and ornamented with palm branches. The church is one of the most popular wedding venues in the city and its three naves can accommodate up to 500 people. The neo-Byzantine style of the building makes it an ideal photo opportunity for both tourists and local photographers.
