Visit the extraordinary churches of the Opole and Olomouc regions!

We invite you on a fascinating journey through the unique churches of the Opole Voivodeship and the Olomouc Region. Each of the churches we visit is not only a place of worship, but also a treasure trove of history, art and architecture. Get to know a few of them with us!

St. Wenceslas Cathedral in Olomouc

The monumental church impresses with its Gothic beauty and the second highest church tower in the Czech Republic. Inside, there is a neo-Gothic altar with the relics of St. John Sarkander, as well as a crypt with the heart of Archbishop and Archduke Rudolf Jan. Right next to it, it is worth visiting the Archdiocesan Museum with its valuable collections of sacral art.

Holy Cross Cathedral in Opole

One of the most recognizable buildings in Opole, built in the 15th century on the site of earlier churches. Its soaring, 73-meter towers dominate the old town, and the interior conceals, among other things, the painting of Our Lady of Opole and the precious relics of the Holy Cross Wood. The cathedral also has bronze gates worth seeing, commemorating important events in the history of Poland and Opole.

Church of St. John the Evangelist in Paczków

The church in Paczków from the 14th century stands out for its extraordinary history - in the 16th century it was fortified and became part of the city's defense system. Inside, you can see the only altar in Central Europe carved from a single piece of sandstone, as well as a historic stone well from the 16th century.

Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Kałków

The Romanesque-Gothic temple from the 13th century is located on a picturesque hill and surrounded by a stone wall. Inside, it is worth paying attention to the Baroque altar of the Holy Family, polychromes and a 17th-century painting depicting the Last Judgement.

Pilgrimage Church of the Virgin Mary Helper - Zlaté Hory

A former pilgrimage site, which was visited by up to one hundred thousand believers before World War II. After being destroyed by the communist authorities, the church was rebuilt anew in 1990. Today, pilgrimages to this place are held in three languages: Czech, German and Polish.

Basilica of St. James and Agnes in Nysa

The mighty temple towering over the market square in Nysa is distinguished by its steep roof and Gothic-Renaissance Passion altar. Inside, you can admire the beautiful Madonna and Child from 1410 and the tombs of the bishops of Wrocław. Next to the basilica is a bell tower with an exhibition of St. James's treasury.

Basilica of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary on Svatý Kopeček

The basilica, located on a hill, offers an amazing view of Olomouc. According to legend, it was built on the site where the Virgin Mary appeared. The adjacent Svatý Kopeček Museum and the nearby zoo with safari and wolves are also worth a visit!

Both regions, of course, hide many more churches worth visiting. You can learn about them by checking the map on our website.
