Saint Stanislaus church in Chortkiv

The church features a Gothic Revival architectural design with twin towers, stone walls, and decorative elements characteristic of early 20th-century religious buildings.

Originally constructed in 1610 by Dominican Fathers under Stanisław Golski's invitation, the current structure was rebuilt in 1918 following designs by architect Jan Sas Zubrzycki.

The interior holds religious sculptures created by artists Czeslaw Stowp and Damian Stankiewicz, alongside a copy of the historical Chortkiv Mother of God painting.

The church stands at 49°1'8"N and 25°47'46"E in central Chortkiv, operating as an active place of worship under the care of Dominican Fathers since 1989.

During World War II, Soviet troops set fire to the building and later converted it into a fertilizer warehouse, resulting in the loss of Dresden organs.
