Church of Saint Ladislaus in Nitra, Baroque church in Lower Town, Nitra, Slovakia.

The Church of Saint Ladislaus features two prominent domed towers, with pilasters and niches decorating the main facade of the building.

Construction started in the early 1700s, but a fire delayed completion, leading to the final consecration of the church in 1789.

Austrian sculptor Martin Vögerle created interior decorations, including frescos depicting the ordination of Nitra's first three Slovak bishops.

The church maintains regular opening hours and operates as part of a larger complex that includes monastic buildings and a Piarist Order school.

Interior frescos narrate the arrival of Saints Cyril and Methodius, who introduced Christianity to the region of Great Moravia.
