Saint Michael Archangel church, Prudnik, Baroque church in Farny Square, Prudnik, Poland.
Saint Michael Archangel church stands on Farny Square and displays baroque features including a 62-meter tower that dominates the townscape. The structure combines stone architecture with ornamental details and took its present form following reconstruction work in the early 18th century.
The church was founded in 1612 and shifted between Catholic and Protestant use during periods of religious conflict. A major transformation between 1730 and 1738 gave it the baroque appearance visible today.
The church bears the name of Saint Michael the Archangel and has served as a spiritual center in Prudnik for generations. You can observe how the surrounding square functions as a gathering place where locals naturally converge, giving the space ongoing community significance.
The building is accessible year-round, though visiting hours depend on service schedules which can vary seasonally. Checking ahead about mass times helps you plan a visit when the church is open to the public.
The design comes from Jan Innocent Töpper, who drew inspiration from Saint Nicolas Church in Prague's Lesser Town when creating this building. This connection to a celebrated Czech model shows in the building's architectural features.
