About the venue
Parish Church of the Assumption, Gudja
Gudja's parish church of the Assumption presides over the village core, its broad baroque façade and dome visible across the southern countryside. It is one of the south's larger parish churches, and the organ sits high in the gallery above the main entrance, so the sound reaches the nave from behind the audience.
