Doksany

Among the settlements of the Ústí nad Labem Region, Doksany stands out for its Romanesque Premonstratensian convent beside the Ohře River. Founded in 1144 by Duke Vladislav II, the monastery is among the oldest female religious foundations in the Czech lands. The Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary retains a rare Romanesque core, while later Baroque alterations reflect the site’s long institutional life. The flat, fertile lower Ohře valley gives Doksany a distinct setting within a region also known for uplands and industrial centres.
