建筑师Marek Jan Štěpán在过去的30年里断断续续地提出了建造这座教堂的想法。然而，在1968年的轻松气氛中，他第一次提出了建造教堂的想法，并在50年后终于实现了。这座教堂是第一座献给出生在离教堂约1英里处的圣母玛丽-雷斯图塔的教堂。

Architect Marek Jan Štěpán has occupied himself with the idea of this church intermittently for the past 30 years. However, the intention to build a church first came up in the relaxed atmosphere of 1968 and was finally fulfilled after 50 years. It is the first church to be dedicated to beatified Marie Restituta who was born approximately 1 mile from its location.

一块长方形的土地上有一个长方形的台地，这块台地定义了神圣的区域。教堂位于老刮沟口的住宅区中心。它有三个基本的群众--教堂、塔楼和精神中心（由Zdeněk Bureš设计）。教堂有一个圆形的平台，圆形是天国和永恒的古老象征（与正方形相反，正方形指的是大地和短暂），天堂在屋顶下方环绕教堂的彩色环形窗户中得到了反射。

A rectangular plateau is laid out on the plot that defines the sacred district. The church is located in the heart of the housing estate at the mouth of the Old scratch ravine. There are three basic masses on it – the church, the tower and the spiritual centre (designed by Zdeněk Bureš). The church has a circular floor plan. The circle is an age-long symbol of heaven and eternity (in contrast to the square, which refers to earth and transience). The heaven is reflected back in the colourful annular window that embraces the church just below the roof.

可以说，这个圆圈漂浮在莱斯纳上空，或者说，在一个形象的、超然的层面上，天堂漂浮在莱斯纳上空。这个圆圈也非常接近当代教堂礼仪的概念，即代表使徒和耶稣在最后的晚餐时围着桌子的团体，礼拜堂位于教堂左侧的一个高大的天井中，从上面照亮了天井。教堂的墙壁在此时被一个三角形的开口所撕裂，这是对耶路撒冷圣殿帷幕撕裂的参考。教堂的内部形成了一个内在的宇宙，它是一个与神沟通的器官。

It might be said that the circle is floating above Lesná or, on a figurative, transcendental level, that the heaven is floating above Lesná. The circle is also very close to the contemporary perception of liturgy in church that represents the community of the Apostles and Jesus around the table during the Last Supper. The tabernacle is located in a tall apse illuminated from above that is situated on the left side of the church. The church wall is torn by a triangular opening at this point, which serves as a reference to the tear in the Jerusalem temple curtain. The interior of the church forms an inner universe. It is an organ for communication with God.

它简单、沉着、冷静。参观者应该感到安全、平衡、不受外界的干扰，几乎就像在母亲的子宫里。柔和圆滑的结构线条形成了一个无形的内部空间，由上面的环形窗户射出的光线所塑造。它的目的是给人间接、柔和的日光，不会投下坚硬的阴影。这扇80米长的窗户上描绘了上帝和他的子民之间的契约的象征：彩虹。

It is simple, composed, and collected. The visitor should feel safe, balanced, and undisturbed by the outside world, almost like in the mother’s womb. The soft and sleek lines of the structure form a disembodied inner space shaped by the light coming from the annular window above. Its purpose is to give indirect, soft daylight that does not cast hard shadows. The symbol of the covenant between God and His people – the rainbow – is depicted on this 80-meter-long window.

圆形彩虹是一种实际上可以从高空观察到的现象，通常是在飞机上。光线被转化为一种元素，暗示着某种超越物质现实极限的东西，某种用我们的感官几乎无法感知的东西，塔楼站在离教堂更远的地方。

A circular rainbow is a phenomenon that can actually be observed from high altitudes, often from planes. The light is turned into an element that hints on something beyond the limits of material reality, something barely perceivable with our senses. The tower stands further from the church.
