Tips from the Community

JakobusPilger
June 14, 2026, Dean's Church of the Transfiguration, Tábor

This house of God located here is not – as is usually the case – dedicated to one of the many people we venerate as saints, or to the Mother of God Mary or her Son. Instead, it bears an event as its patronage title, namely the TRANSFIGURATION (called "Verklärung Christi" or "Verklärung des Herrn" in German-speaking areas). The three synoptic Gospels, i.e. all evangelists except John, report on this in the Bible: Mark (Chapter 9), Luke (Chapter 9), Matthew (Chapter 17). In a work aid from the Bible Society, the event of the Transfiguration / Verklärung is summarized in the following two sentences: => "In the middle of everyday life, three disciples have an Easter experience with Jesus: They see Jesus in mysterious light, and Moses and Elijah talk with him. Thus, the disciples are revealed Jesus' deepest identity as God's 'beloved Son.'" This event, testified three times in the New Testament, is located on Mount Tabor in Israel. A basilica was erected there in commemoration (see https://www.komoot.de/highlight/266239 ), which can thus be considered the original church for the patronage of this house of God here – in the Czech town of Tabor.

In the middle of the pedestrian zone. Stroll through comfortably without the crowds of tourists.

A beautiful view from the tower, a nice exhibition of historical objects, which does not focus only on Husick weapons.

The church is open to the public, with a warning to keep quiet. You can climb the church tower, 200 steps, 50 meters high. You will see Žižkovo náměstí, as if in the palm of your hand, the view of the surroundings is wonderful.

The temple built in late Gothic style from the 15th and 16th centuries. The shell of the temple building was completed on the outside by Renaissance gables. The Gothic tower grew with a Renaissance corridor. Architect Josef Mocker tried to restore the medieval form of the temple building by modifying it in the Gothic spirit.
