Corpus Christi Basilica, Minor basilica in Kazimierz district, Kraków, Poland

Corpus Christi Basilica is a church with Romanesque features located in the Kazimierz district, built from thick stone walls and topped by tall towers. Inside, a large organ with thousands of pipes provides sound to the prayer space and concerts.

Construction of this basilica began in the 14th century under royal patronage, faced interruption during difficult times, and was resumed later. This extended building period shaped the structure visitors see today.

This church has served the community of Kazimierz for centuries and remains a living place of worship and music today. Visitors encounter both religious gatherings and classical music performances that fill the interior with sound and meaning.

This church welcomes visitors and holds services regularly throughout the week. Come during afternoon or early evening hours when fewer services are happening if you want a quieter visit.

The main altar towers above the church floor with detailed carved figures of prophets created over several years in the 17th century. Few visitors realize how the artist managed such intricate work at such a great height.
