Church of the Bernardine Friars in Rzeszów, Minor basilica in central Rzeszów, Poland

The Bernardine Church displays red brick architecture with quadrangle monastery buildings surrounding a central courtyard and features multiple gable roofs and stone details.

Construction of the church began in 1624 under the patronage of Mikołaj Spytek Ligęza, replacing a wooden structure that previously housed a miraculous statue.

The church interior contains a fifteenth-century Gothic statue of the Virgin Mary, numerous altars by Jan Pfister, and functions as a significant pilgrimage destination.

Regular masses occur throughout the week, with Sunday services beginning at 6:00 AM in the Chapel of Our Lady, including special ceremonies for children.

The religious complex served as part of Rzeszów's defense system, with fortified walls protecting the northern and western fronts of the historical town.
