The Church of Saint Giles ({{langx|cs|Kostel svatého Jiljí}}) is a church in Prague, Czech Republic.{{Cite web|title=Church of St Giles|url=https://www.prague.eu/en/object/places/1266/church-of-st-giles-kostel-sv-jilji|website=Official Tourist Website for Prague}} This monumental three-aisled church was built on the foundations of a Romanesque church. Subsequently, numerous reconstructions took place during the 12th to 14th century. The Church of St. Giles in Prague was consecrated on 4 May 1371.
In 1625, the church was donated to the Dominican order, which has served here and in the adjacent monastery ever since. The church was remodeled in Baroque style.{{Cite web|url=https://www.prague-stay.com/lifestyle/review/1592-the-church-of-st-giles|title=The Church of St. Giles}}
