Church of St. Anne, Baroque church in Old Town, Kraków, Poland

The Church of St. Anne features a three-aisle layout with a dome supported by pendentives displaying representations of cardinal virtues at 13 św Anny Street.

Dutch architect Tylman van Gameren constructed the current church between 1689 and 1705 following the demolition of a Gothic structure from 1407.

The church interior contains epitaphs of Kraków University professors, including a monument to astronomer Nicholas Copernicus installed in 1823.

The church maintains regular opening hours for visitors who wish to examine the baroque stucco decorations by Baldassare Fontana and the original organ.

The church walls display trompe-l'œil paintings near the main nave pillars, creating an optical illusion of three-dimensional statues of the Apostles.
