The Church of Our Lady Victorious in Malá Strana

The Church of Our Lady Victorious is hidden away in the Malá Strana area of Prague, but is well worth the trip. Built in 1613, Our Lady Victorious was the first baroque church to be built in Prague. Draped in smooth marble and gold, the church is a hidden luxury. Of course, what draws in tourists and Czechs alike is the wax effigy of baby Jesus, also known as the Infant of Prague. A section of the church is dedicated to a display of the Infant of Prague and his many fabulous gowns and gifts from famous figures of the past few centuries.
