Church of Our Lady Before Týn is located in the very centre of the Old Square and is therefore one of the more recognisable churches of Prague. The two spires on the church are not symmetrical; they are meant to represent femininity and masculinity, a crucial element to Gothic architecture that distinguishes it from the rest. It has a stunning interior and one of the most notable Czech painters, Karl Škréta, provided the church with a beautiful painting of the Virgin Mary which is displayed above the main altar.
