Providence of God church in Toruń, Catholic parish church in Rudak district, Toruń, Poland.
Providence of God church in Toruń is a Catholic parish building with Neo-Gothic style features located at the intersection of Okólna and Kościelna streets. The tower with its cross rises to about 35 meters and dominates the building's appearance.
Construction of the church began in 1904 following the establishment of the Rudak-Stewken parish to serve the growing Lutheran community in Toruń. The building was designed by local master builder Ernest Goldbach who followed precise architectural proportions.
The church displays Neo-Gothic confessionals and features stained glass windows by Ferdinand Müller that fill the interior with colored light. The original wooden benches and Neo-Renaissance organ shape how the space feels when you walk inside.
The church can be visited during service times, which occur on weekday mornings and evenings. Multiple services are spread throughout the day on weekends, and visitors should use the public entrance when exploring the interior.
The church was originally built to serve the Lutheran community, yet today it functions as a Catholic parish church, reflecting a religious transformation of the area. This change in use shows how the neighborhood's religious makeup shifted over time.
