Transfiguration of Jesus Church in Węgierska Górka, Catholic church in Węgierska Górka, Poland.
The Transfiguration of Jesus Church is a Catholic church featuring three distinctive tent-like roof structures that form its architectural identity in the center of Węgierska Górka. The building's modern design and peaked roof forms create a recognizable landmark for the local community.
The cornerstone for this church was laid on June 18, 1978 by Cardinal Karol Wojtyła, four months before his election as Pope John Paul II. This event connects the building to one of the most influential papal figures of the 20th century.
The church houses the largest pipe organ in the Żywiec region, enriching religious ceremonies with exceptional musical performances throughout the year.
The building belongs to St. Catherine Parish in Cięcina and holds regular masses for the local Catholic community. Visitors should check service times if they wish to see the interior and its decorative elements.
The interior features detailed stained glass windows depicting biblical scenes and marble mosaic work adorning the side altars. These artisanal details make viewing the inside a visual experience worth discovering.
