General information about Saint Jakob Church (Krakovets)

The Roman Catholic Church of Saint Jakob the Apostle was built in Krakovets in 1785-1787 in the neoclassical style at the expense of Ihnatiy Tsetner. The former church, founded in 1425, when Krakovets received Magdeburg rights, was wooden.

The new brick Catholic church designed by Domeniko Merlini had 7 altars. Its facade was previously decorated with a portico with columns. The relief "Allegory of Faith" is preserved on the frieze.

In Soviet times, the temple was used as a production facility.

Currently, the Church of Saint Jakob in Krakovets has been re-consecrated.

Римо-католицький костел Святого Якова Апостола збудований у Краківці в 1785-1787 роках у неокласичному стилі коштом Ігнатія Цетнера. Колишній костел, заснований 1425 року, коли Краковець отримав Магдебурзьке право, був дерев'яним.

Новий мурований католицький храм за проєктом Доменіко Мерліні мав 7 вівтарів. Фасад його раніше прикрашав портик із колонами. На фризі зберігся рельєф "Алегорія віри".

За радянських часів храм використовувався як виробниче приміщення.

Наразі костел Святого Якова в Краківці знову освячений.
