Saint John the Baptist church in Prandocin

The church features a two-level western apse, a tower, and original small semicircular windows that once provided natural lighting to the interior space.

The church was founded in the first quarter of the 12th century by komes Prandota the Old, a member of the Odrowąż family who established it.

The portal displays detailed architectural elements with columns, capitals, and a semicircular archivolt decorated in red, blue, and green polychrome patterns.

The church remains an active religious institution, offering regular services and maintaining its status as a registered monument in Lesser Poland Voivodeship.

The entrance portal exhibits a braided ornament design that reflects influences from the Upper Rhineland architectural traditions of medieval Europe.
