Churches of Kraków
Encyclopedia
The metropolitan city of Kraków
, former capital of Poland
, is known as the city of churches. The abundance of landmark
, historic Roman Catholic churches along with the plenitude of monasteries and convents earned the city a countrywide reputation as the "Northern Rome" in the past. The churches of Kraków comprise over 120 Roman Catholic places of worship, of which over 60 were built in the 20th century. They remain the centers of religious life for the local population and are attended regularly, while some are often crowded on Sundays.
The number of churches in Kraków still increases. Understandably, the out–of–town visitors mostly explore the renowned historic edifices; these are only a fraction of the vast array. Many of the old churches are prizeworthy as architectural monuments of Poland's history and culture. They often house religious icons and artifacts revered for their artistic and spiritual value.
