About
St. Anne’s Church (Polish: Kościół św. Anny) stands proudly in Warsaw’s historic Castle Square, adjacent to Krakowskie Przedmieście 68. A masterpiece of late‑Baroque and neoclassical design, the church’s imposing façade, crafted by Chrystian Piotr Aigner in 1788, features statues of the Four Evangelists that dominate the front elevation. Inside, the cathedral’s high‑baroque interior boasts a dazzling array of frescoes and a unique diamond‑vaulted cloister that is the only surviving example of its type in Warsaw. Recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and listed as a historic monument of Poland, St. Anne’s Church is a must‑visit landmark for anyone exploring Warsaw’s cultural heritage.
