Kościół św. Michała w Krakowie, Baroque church in Old Town, Kraków, Poland.

The church features a rectangular presbytery with side chapels and a transept, built following a Latin cross architectural plan.

Construction began in 1611, and Bishop Jakub Zadzik consecrated the church in 1636, initially dedicated to both Saint Joseph and Saint Michael.

The church gained recognition in 1669 for a painting of Saint Joseph, which became a center of religious devotion through reported miracles.

The building underwent partial demolition between 1872 and 1874, with remaining sections repurposed into court facilities.

The Discalced Carmelites received the land from Andrzej Tęczyński, including municipal bathhouse structures for their monastery complex.
