St. Andrew's Church stands at 54 Grodzka Street in Kraków's Old Town, Poland. A Romanesque Roman Catholic church built between 1079 and 1098 by the Polish statesman Palatine Sieciech, it is one of the city's oldest buildings and a rare surviving European fortress church. It was the only church in Kraków to withstand the Mongol attack of 1241, and it has been home to the Poor Clares since 1320.
