St. Mary of the Snows church naturally is open year-round, but here's an actual picture of the church in the snow. Officially founded in 1347 (some sources say 1397, so this could be wrong), this church is physically the highest in Prague with a 34 metre-high vault, even though this photo doesn't make it obvious. This height record doesn't include spires, as St. Vitus Cathedral and several other Christian places of worship have spires far above 34 metres. The altar at St. Mary of the Snows is also higher than any other in Prague, at 29 metres.

The Church of St. Thomas is actually much older than it looks. The Baroque facades on it now are just that, facades, that were installed in the 17th Century to hide battle damage from the Thirty Years War. The original foundation (and presumably structure) of the church dates to 1356, having been consecrated in the presence of Holy Roman Emperor Karluv IV, although the church had been planned under his father, John of Luxembourg. Today the church is next to the entrance to Brno's system of catacombs.
