Sacred Heart Basilica in Augustów, Brick basilica in Augustów, Poland.

The Sacred Heart Basilica features three naves, five altars, and twin towers reaching 50 meters into the sky above Augustów's center.

Construction of the basilica took place from 1906 to 1911, replacing a classical church, and underwent reconstruction after significant damage in 1944.

The stained glass windows within the basilica illustrate Polish history from 966 to the 20th century through detailed religious and historical scenes.

The basilica hosts daily services, with additional ceremonies during religious festivals and maintains regular visiting hours for tourists throughout the year.

The neo-Renaissance main altar includes an elaborate predella decorated with gold elements and features statues of Saint Bartholomew and angels.
