Holiest Salvator Church in Lublin

Holiest Salvator Church in Lublin, Modernist church in Lublin, Poland.

The Church of the Most Holy Savior is a single-nave brick church on the main alley of the Catholic cemetery on Unicka Street in Lublin. Its steep red-tile roof, low tower and projecting porch refer to the parish church in Kazimierz Dolny. The facade carries statues of the Apostles Peter and Paul, and the interior has white plaster, barrel vaults and a stained-glass Crucifixion in the presbytery.

The building was constructed between 1934 and 1935 following a design by architect Aleksander Gruchalski during a period when modernist styles began influencing church architecture. The project was part of a broader wave of new church construction across Poland during the interwar period.

The chapel was consecrated on 3 November 1935, and since 1985 it has served as the rectoral church of the Most Holy Savior. Rows of plaques on the outer walls bear the names of people killed or murdered between 1939 and 1956. Inside, the baptismal altar holds figures of Duke Mieszko I and Duchess Doubravka, recalling the Christianization of Poland.

The church stands on the main alley in the northern part of the Catholic cemetery on Unicka Street, facing the entrance. A ring road built in the 1970s split the cemetery in two, so the church is now in the northern section. The cemetery remains in use; visitors should keep to the paths and behave respectfully.

The porch's arcaded recess echoes the so-called sobótki porches of old Polish wooden churches, and the same solution appears in the church of St John Vianney at Polichna, built earlier by the same architect, Aleksander Gruchalski. Look also for the niche with a sculpture on the outer apse, recalling medieval Holy Sepulchre shrines.
