The village of Dolní Životice is located 10 km southwest of the town of Opava in the slightly undulating terrain of the basin through which the Hvozdnice river flows.
The village consists of two local parts - Dolní Životice and Hertice settlement.

Church of the Divine Savior
This building is widely considered a remarkable monument. It was built in the early Gothic style by the Razumovsky family. The silhouette is divided into sections of different heights, the exterior is designed with various outbuildings and bay windows. Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque and folk elements can be observed here. On the west side of the church is the entrance door to the underground tomb of the Counts of Razumovský. The massive altar, located even with the tower on the west side of the church, is carved from wood in the Gothic style. The church is not only a visible landmark of the village, but is also its rarest cultural monument. He was ordained in 1908.

On the right side of the entrance to the church (behind the wrought iron grill) there was originally a commemorative plaque from 1908 with the following bilingual text:

"Kaiser Franz Josef I. erban und am 13. September konsekrirt worden. Schönstein im jahre des heits 1908.'

On the right half of Czech:

“This temple of the Lord was set forth and consecrated. Life of the Lord's Summer 1908."

Today, the Imperial Plaque is fixed on the opposite side and in its place is a plaque with the names and photographs of the WW1 dead.
