Church of St. Michael in Sandomierz, Benedictine monastery church in Sandomierz, Poland

The Church of St. Michael features basilica-like wings with corner galleries and stands beside the Opatów Gate in central Sandomierz.

After destruction during the Polish-Swedish War, engineer Jan Michał Linek directed the church reconstruction between 1686 and 1692.

The complex transformed from a Benedictine nuns monastery into the Higher Seminary of Sandomierz, maintaining its religious educational function.

The church building maintains its original architectural structure despite modifications made in 1903 to accommodate the seminary functions.

A fire in 1966 destroyed most interior decorations, preserving only select elements including an eighteenth-century tabernacle.
