Sts. Cyril and Methodius Church

Sts. Cyril and Methodius Church is a moving and historic site, best known for its memorial to the Czechoslovak paratroopers who resisted Nazi occupation in World War II. The crypt, where the fighters made their last stand, is especially powerful and emotional to visit. The church itself is peaceful, with beautiful architecture and a sense of solemn respect. A must-see in Prague for those interested in history, remembrance, and quiet reflection.

We were absolutely blown away by Sts. Cyril and Methodius Church—an often-overlooked gem that deserves far more attention. The exterior is impressive, but it’s the interior that truly takes your breath away. The church is adorned with vivid, intricate frescoes that cover nearly every surface, creating a kaleidoscope of color and symbolism. It’s like stepping inside a living icon. The level of detail is extraordinary, and the atmosphere is both majestic and serene. The interior architecture is equally striking, with a unique layout and Eastern Orthodox design elements that set it apart from most churches in Ljubljana. It offers a rare and powerful glimpse into Slavic religious and artistic traditions. Whether you’re interested in sacred art, ecclesiastical architecture, or simply want to experience something beautiful and moving, this church is absolutely worth a visit. A true hidden treasure for art and architecture lovers alike.

Nice church, it's worth seeing if you are near as it is not very big and it won't take a lot of your time

This church is one of the key centers of Eastern Orthodox Christianity in Slovenia. It is dedicated to Saints Cyril and Methodius, two brothers who brought Christianity to the Slavic peoples. They are known for developing the Glagolitic script, which later influenced the Cyrillic alphabet, and for laying the foundations of Christian mission work across Eastern Europe. The building was constructed between 1932 and 1936 in the Byzantine architectural style, and is especially renowned for its interior iconography painted by Đuro Radulović.
