Saint Andrew Bobola's Church in Bydgoszcz, Gothic Revival church in downtown Bydgoszcz, Poland.
Saint Andrew Bobola's Church is a brick church in Gothic Revival style located in downtown Bydgoszcz. The building features a tall tower with a spire, triangular gables at the main entrance, and diamond-patterned vaults on the interior ceiling.
German architect Heinrich Seeling designed the building in 1901 for the Protestant community. After World War II, it was transferred to Catholic administration in 1945.
The church serves as a venue for musical performances and concerts organized by the Bydgoszcz Music Academy. The large pipe organ inside makes it an important location for classical music events in the city.
The church is located on Koscielecki Square and is open to visitors throughout the week with regular services. It is helpful to check ahead for any special events or concerts that might be taking place.
The church stands on the site of a medieval castle from 1346 that once dominated this location. This piece of land transformed over centuries from a fortification to a religious building.
