Information

Bethlehem Chapel

The Bethlehem Chapel is a medieval religious building in the Old Town. The Czech reformer Jan Hus became a preacher in March 1402. After Hus's excommunication in 1412, the Pope ordered the Bethlehem chapel to be pulled down.

Most of the chapel's exterior walls and a small portion of the pulpit date back to the medieval chapel. The wall paintings are largely from Hus's time there, and the text below is taken from his work De sex erroribus, and contrast the poverty of Christ with the riches of the Catholic Church of Hus's time ( read more )
