Saint Stanislaus church in Łańcut, Gothic church in Łańcut, Poland.
Saint Stanislaus church in Łańcut is a brick parish church of the Przemyśl archdiocese, rebuilt in its present form between 1896 and 1900 on the old walls. Inside, the south arm of the transept holds a chapel with the crowned image of Our Lady of the Scapular, brought from Kraków in 1670, set in a two-tier altar of 1900 by Kazimierz Chodziński. A black marble baptismal font from the second half of the 17th century stands in the church.
Construction of the church began in 1488, establishing a central place of worship in Łańcut during the late medieval period. Over subsequent centuries the building was expanded and maintained, adapting to the needs of the growing local community.
The church's main cult centres on the crowned image of Our Lady of the Scapular, brought from Kraków in 1670 and placed in the south arm of the transept. It is a free copy of the Kraków image of Our Lady of the Sands, crowned in 1883. Golden votive crowns were placed on it on 20 September 1992 by Archbishop Ignacy Tokarczuk, after Pope John Paul II blessed them on 2 June 1991.
The building is located in central Łańcut on Farna Street and is freely accessible to visitors who wish to explore at their own pace. Since it functions as an active parish church, visitors should be respectful during services and special celebrations.
The venerated image of Our Lady of the Scapular in the south transept is a free copy of Kraków's Madonna of the Sand, brought here from Kraków in 1670.

Archbishop Ignacy Tokarczuk crowned it on 20 September 1992 with golden votive crowns blessed by John Paul II on 2 June 1991.
