This church is very unassuming on the outside, but once you find yourself indoors, it is majestic! The amount of gold covered altars are impressive more »

This church is located near the Jewish Quarter. Another magnificent church (one of many in Krakow) richly decorated in gold and carved wood/stone, particularly the altar and the choir chairs. more »

A really worth visiting place. Very old and not so crowded as others in the town center. Entrance is free of charge. Impressive mix of gothic and baroque styles. See my pics attached

Corpus Christi Church in Krakow is a fine Gothic church dating from the mid-1300s. The impressive brick church has a rich interior with several side chapels. Notable features include a high altar from 1634, the superb choir stalls of 1629, and an interesting mid-18th-century pulpit shaped like a boat. An upper chapel contains a Madonna by Lucas Cranach (c.1520). The adjacent monastery dates from 1405.
