I love nothing better than wandering around the back streets of the Jewish Quarter ,lots of great cafés,pubs,bars and restaurants and some fantastic architecture ,on the corner of Plac Wolnica is Corpus Christi Church.
Corpus Christi Church ( Kosciol Bozego Ciala ) was constructed during the reign and under the orders of King Casimir III The Great between 1340-1403 ,it's a church that commands you're attention ,it's a fascinating church to view with a mix of architectural styles including Gothic,Romanesque and Baroque ,this church is so photogenic ,makes for some great photographic opportunities ,it's set in pretty grounds and if you're in the Jewish Quarter ( Kazimierz District ) it's a church building I highly recommend you seek out ,it's easy to locate on Plac Wolnica.

Mix of 2 different architect, the dark Corpus Christi church can be discovered/visited for free. Interesting to see, explanation of it history with a guide is the best

This was a revelation of a church on our tour of the Kazimierz. What an altar piece for starters! A giant of a church and very peaceful inside unlike some that are more central. A genuinely holy place...

Looking from the outside gives you no idea of what you will see when you enter.
There's an amazing amount of gilt decoration and paintings inside. It's a very tall building and the space is still crammed with pictures and statues.
Have a look inside as you're passing through the Jewish district.

What a beautiful church laid out on well kept and manicured grounds.
I was shocked looking towards the alter at the countless hours and artisans it must have taken to building and develop this church.
The attention and amount of detail really is ‘special’.
A must see!

It is a hugh catholic church - much bigger than the synagogues. The background is that it was not allowed to build higher and more beautiful synagogues as the catholic churches are. The polish goverment allowed to be jewish but did not prefer it against of catholicism.
The church itself is in baroque style, it must be seen. Really nice.
You can enter there from the side door, there is no entrance fee.

Beautiful church with stunning architecture. There was work going on inside the church when we were there but this didn’t retract from the beauty. It’s free if you want to go in for a walk about you just need to be mindful of the people who go in to worship and pray.

We stumbled across this MAGNIFICENT church after exploring the jewish quarter and it has to be one of the best moments of my life.
I've been to the Vatican and numerous churches I my 36 years but this place is special.
We heard music so went in and was blessed to be part of their mass. It was beautiful to witness absolutely incredible.
I could have stayed all night. I am catholic so biased but my partner is not- even he said it was out of this world.
Go explore and find this place it wont let you down we came back the next day to get some pics.
