Svaté Pole is a municipality and village in Příbram District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 500 inhabitants.
The village of Budínek is an administrative part of Svaté Pole.
The name literally means 'holy field', but in earlier times the meaning of this expression was 'cemetery'.[2]
Svaté Pole is located about 12km (07miles) northeast of Příbram and 34km (21miles) southwest of Prague. It lies in an agricultural landscape in the Benešov Uplands. There are several fishponds in the municipal territory; the largest of them is Svatopolský.
The first written mention of Svaté Pole is from 1352.[3]
The D4 motorway from Prague to Písek passes through the municipality.
The main landmark of Svaté Pole is the Church of Saint Elizabeth of Thuringia. It was originally a medieval Gothic church, rebuilt in the Baroque style in 1710–1721. The reconstruction was inspired by the Church of San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane in Rome.[4]
