At that time, two chapels (St. František and St. Fidel) were added to the left side of the single-arcade church. With reference to František Baron of Trencka, the so-called Trenckovo wing was built in which the valuable Capuchin library is situated with preserved original rococo fixtures and ceiling frescoes by Josef Stern.

  • Rosa Coeli Dolní Kounice - monastery ruins New window.
    Shortly after its founding in 1181, the convent became a seat the Premonstratensians. It was burned down during the Hussite wars, and although restored, it ceased to exist in the following century. The Premonstratensians of Strahov were willing to restore it, but left it to its fate after the fire in 1703. However, even the current ruins - especially the roofless torso of the main aisle of the church - have a certain appeal and the extant parts have significant architectural value.
