Church of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus in Kraków, Neo-Gothic church in Kraków, Poland.

The Church of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus extends 52 meters in length with a prominent tower reaching 68 meters into the Kraków skyline.

The construction of this religious building occurred between 1909 and 1912, with final consecration taking place in 1921 after World War I ended.

The main portal features a stone sculpture by artist Xawery Dunikowski, depicting Christ with extended arms welcoming visitors to the sacred space.

Located at Kopernika 26 street, the church remains open to visitors throughout the day and does not require entrance fees.

A 30-meter mosaic frieze above the high altar presents Polish saints and rulers, including Ladislaus Jagiełło and St Jadwiga, paying tribute to Christ.
