Saint Anne church, Gothic church in Ząbkowice Śląskie, Poland

Saint Anne church is a three-nave, four-bay hall church built of brick, with a three-bay choir closed on five sides and buttresses. Its vaults vary by bay: cross-ribbed in the aisles, net vaults over the chancel and main nave, and an eight-rayed star vault over the western bay. Chapels on the north and south aisles form a transept.

Construction started in the 14th century following medieval building principles and ecclesiastical architecture standards of the period. The project used methods and materials that were common for religious buildings in southern Poland at that time.

The church functions as a gathering place for Sunday worship and religious holidays where the local Catholic community comes together regularly. This role has remained central to the spiritual life of the town throughout the centuries.

The church stands in the western part of the old town on ul. Świętego Wojciecha, formerly Kirchstraße. The leaning bell tower on the north side, tilted 2.55 degrees, is part of the complex. Visits depend on the parish schedule, so check times locally.

The church is a brick hall building, not sandstone: its facades were clad in machine-made brick during the 1893–1896 neo-Gothic restoration. On the outer wall are epitaphs, including that of Wit Stwosz the Younger, son of the Görlitz goldsmith Florian and grandson of the sculptor Wit Stwosz.
