Kościół Przemienienia Pańskiego w Poznaniu, Late Gothic church on Długa Street, Poznań, Poland.
Kościół Przemienienia Pańskiego is a late Gothic church on Długa Street in Poznań with a single nave and distinctive external buttresses. A sturdy tower anchors the northwest corner, emphasizing the structure's medieval Gothic design.
Construction began in 1595 under Cathedral Dean Andrzej Kościelecki, who brought a Salvator Mundi sculpture from the Vatican to enhance the building. This Counter-Reformation project shaped the church's character from its inception.
The church remains an active place of worship where visitors can observe regular religious gatherings and devotional practices. The interior reflects the spiritual traditions that have shaped this space across generations.
The building is connected to a monastic complex now integrated with a university hospital, so visitors should be aware of medical facility operations nearby. Access and visiting times may vary depending on ongoing hospital activities in the surrounding buildings.
The interior vaulting spans about 265 square meters (2,850 square feet) with ribbed arches and religious frescoes painted in 1750. These wall paintings were carefully restored in 2005, revealing handcrafted details that visitors can still admire today.
