Saint Sigismund church in Częstochowa, Gothic parish church in Częstochowa, Poland.

The Saint Sigismund Church exhibits a three-nave basilica layout with a rectangular tower annex and narrow chancel extending toward the eastern section.

The church structure, dating from 1350, underwent extensive modifications between 1767 and 1771, transforming it from a Gothic building into a Late Baroque basilica.

The interior displays architectural elements from different periods, including double barrel vaults, a semi-circular rood arch, and an 1874 altar with sculpted figures.

The church complex, located at Krakowska 1, includes a former monastery that now functions as a rectory with two two-storied wings.

Medieval structural elements remain visible beneath the restored facades, revealing the original construction techniques used in the fourteenth-century church building.
