Church of St. Anthony of Padua in Warsaw, Baroque church in Śródmieście, Poland

The Church of St. Anthony of Padua features a rectangular interior with two side chapels and a porch with an 18th-century lattice on Senatorska Street.

King Sigismund III Vasa funded the construction of the original wooden church to commemorate the victory at the Siege of Smolensk in 1611.

The interior galleries contain epitaphs honoring writer Klementyna Hoffmanowa, painter Rafał Hadziewicz, poet Stanisław Jachowicz, and World War II Polish soldiers.

The church underwent extensive reconstruction from 1950 to 1956 under architect Karol Szymański after suffering significant damage during the 1944 conflicts.

In 1766, the monastery provided shelter to Giacomo Casanova while he was evading capture by authorities in Warsaw.
