Church of the Transfiguration in Krakow, Baroque church building in Old Town, Krakow, Poland.

The Church of the Transfiguration exhibits classical Baroque features with a symmetrical facade, twin towers, and ornate stone decorations on its exterior walls.

The construction of this religious building took place between 1714 and 1727 under the guidance of Polish architect Kacper Bażanka in the heart of Krakow.

The Piarist order maintains this church as part of their educational mission, continuing centuries of religious instruction and community service in Krakow.

The church houses multiple altars decorated with religious paintings, integrated into the architectural design through calculated placement of windows for natural illumination.
