St. Joseph's Church is a monumental neo-Gothic Catholic church dominating Rynek Podgórski at the foot of Lasota Hill in Kraków's Podgórze district. Built between 1905 and 1909 to designs by architect Jan Sas-Zubrzycki, the church is renowned for its slender 80-metre clock tower echoing St. Mary's Basilica. Its red-brick masonry, white stone ornamentation, flying buttresses, and soaring pinnacles produce an enchanting fairytale profile.
Highlights
- Magnificent Polish neo-Gothic church designed by Jan Sas-Zubrzycki
