The Church of St. Giles is a Roman Catholic church built in the 14th century, first under the patronage of the Benedictines and then the Dominicans to which the church currently belongs. It was enlarged in the 17th- and 18th-century, although these annexes were demolished in the 19th century. The current Gothic temple has a single nave.
The Church of St Andrew is a Roman Catholic temple built in the 11th century. It is one of the oldest churches in the city.
The Royal Archcathedral Basilica of Saints Stanislaus and Wenceslaus on the Wawel Hill was founded by the construction of a first building around the year 1000. Thereafter, succeeded a Romanesque church in the 12th century and finally a Gothic church in the 14th. The cathedral is a UNESCO World Heritage since 1978.
The Saints Peter and Paul Church is the first Baroque architecture building in Krakow. It was built from 1597 to 1619 for the Jesuits, hence the obvious inspiration from the Gesù church in Rome.
