St. Augustine's Church in Warsaw, Romanesque Revival church in the central district of Warsaw, Poland

The brick church features a large central tower, symmetrical side naves, cross vaults on girders, and ornate pillars in its three-aisle structure.

Construction began in 1891 after Józef Mikulicki donated land and Countess Aleksandra Potocka provided 300,000 rubles for the building project.

During World War II, the church served multiple functions, including as a theater venue in 1941-1942 while located within the Warsaw Ghetto boundaries.

The church holds regular services, with the main entrance located at 18 Nowolipki Street, and offers religious education sessions on Mondays and Thursdays.

The tower's cross sits atop a sphere measuring 1.35 meters in diameter, which was originally gilded but was painted black in 1959.
