The Church of Our Lady of the Assumption, also called the Polish Church, is a Catholic church in Gothic style in Irkutsk, Siberia, Russia. Its predecessor, a wooden church built in 1825, burned in the great fire of July 1879. The present brick neo-Gothic structure was erected by the Polish community between 1881 and 1883 to plans by the Polish architect Jan Tamulewicz. Its dome shape distinguishes it from nearby Orthodox churches, and it is a federal cultural heritage site in Russia.
