Church of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus in Szombierki, Neo-Romanesque parish church in Szombierki, Poland.

The Church of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus is a large stone structure featuring Neo-Romanesque architectural details and a public clock on its exterior. The building displays the characteristic heavy stonework and rounded arches typical of this architectural style.

Construction began in 1902 under architect Wilhelm Wieczorek and was completed in 1904, followed by consecration in 1905. This early 20th-century project reflected the growing religious needs of the mining community at that time.

The church serves as a central gathering place for the community in Szombierki, hosting regular services and local events that bring residents together. Its presence shapes the religious and social life of this district in Bytom.

The church is located in the Szombierki district and is accessible on foot from the town center. Visiting during service times allows you to experience the interior and see the building in active use by the community.

The structure blends industrial-era architectural techniques with religious design, reflecting how mining and faith were intertwined in this region's history. The public clock on the facade once served the community as a daily time reference.
