Kościół św. Józefa w Krzeszowie, Baroque church in Krzeszów, Poland.

The single-nave church features side chapels, matroneum galleries, and barrel vaults with lunettes covering the entire interior space of the structure.

The construction of the church took place between 1690 and 1696 under Abbot Bernard Rosa, replacing an earlier temple dedicated to Saint Andrew.

The church contains more than 50 frescoes by Michael Willmann depicting the genealogical tree of Christ and stories of the Holy Family.

The church functions as an auxiliary place of worship within the Parish of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Krzeszów.

The fresco collection inside the church represents the largest collection of wall paintings north of the Alps in Europe.
