Church of St Cajetan (Kostel sv. Kajetána), Mala Strana, Prague


From St Nicholas, a street (Nerudova) climbs steadily uphill towards the castle, and halfway up is the church of St Cajetan (or St Gaetano). It was built in 1691-1711. On the first time of visiting the church was locked, but on the very last morning I found the church doors open, and although it was not possible to enter in common with several other churches in the city you could at least see the interior through the metalwork screen. The church does not appear to have a tower, but is cruciform with a domed chapel at the NE corner.
