Saint John the Baptist church in Dobczyce, Classical church in Dobczyce, Poland.

The Saint John the Baptist Church features a single-nave structure with a three-sided altar and a western tower built with materials from Dobczyce Castle.

The current church was constructed between 1828 and 1834 by Jan Turnau, replacing a previous 16th-century stone temple funded by Sebastian Lubomirski.

The interior contains five wooden altars crafted in 1851, including detailed stations of the Passion of Christ and a Renaissance marble funeral epitaph from 1594.

The church sits above a cemetery on a hill within medieval city walls, belonging to the parish of Our Lady of Help of Christians.

Next to the church stands a three-arcade bell tower housing a Gothic bell from 1504 and two modern bells cast in 1975 in Przemyśl.
