Loreto chapel in Kraków, Baroque chapel near Capuchin Church in Kraków, Poland.

The Loreto Chapel contains a central prayer area with a gallery displaying a figure of Our Lady of Loreto above the main altar point.

Between 1712 and 1719, architect Kacper Bażanka constructed this religious building next to the Church of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

The gallery features epitaphs dedicated to Polish scientists and military leaders, making it a place of national remembrance and religious devotion.
