The Church of Our Lady of Victories in Prague has no named architect or client in the article. The infobox gives 1611 to 1613, and the text says a larger church was built around 1611 for German Lutherans in the style of a Roman basilica, after a Holy Trinity chapel of 1584. Emperor Ferdinand II gave it to the Carmelites in 1624.
The infobox calls the style Baroque. The facade was built in 1664 with funding from Baltasar Marradas, and a tower was added in 1669. The only material mentioned is a red-and-gray marble altar of 1776. It gives no dimensions.
It houses the Infant Jesus of Prague statue, and the introduction dates the donation to 1628 while the history says Princess Lobkowicz gave it in 1638. Pope Benedict XVI crowned the image in 2009. It is part of Prague's UNESCO World Heritage Site and has a related museum. The article gives no hours.
