Church of St. Michael in Lublin, Medieval church building in Old Town, Lublin, Poland
The Church of Saint Michael stood on Grodzka Street with a square nave, rectangular chancel, and a 65-meter-high tower until 1854.
The church foundation dates to 1282 when Prince Leszek Czarny received a vision from Archangel Michael before his battle against Yotvingians.
The church served multiple roles as a parish church, collegiate church, and cathedral, reflecting the changing religious needs of Lublin residents.
The building underwent demolition in 1854 due to structural decay, and its location now functions as a city square in Lublin.
Archaeological excavations have revealed the church foundations, while its artifacts remain distributed among different churches throughout Lublin.
