Saint James church in Lębork, Gothic church building in Lębork, Poland.

The brick structure features a hall design with a central nave, two aisles divided into four bays, and octagonal pillars supporting vaulted arcades.

The church construction started under Teutonic Order Grand Master Dietrich von Altenburg, with the first written records mentioning it along with tower and parish priest Ulrich in 1337.

The church experienced changes in religious practice, transforming from Catholic to Protestant during the Reformation period before returning to Catholic liturgy under the Polish kingdom.

Located at coordinates 54°31'N, 17°49'E in central Lębork, the church maintains regular opening hours for visitors and continues to function as an active parish.
