Churches in Załęże, Katowice: the Neo-Gothic Church of St Joseph, a Pentecostal congregation with a huge dome and the cemetery Chapel of the Good Thief.
Three places of worship, all along the same street: two Neo-Gothic buildings from the 19th century and a modern Pentecostal congregation built in 1989-1997.
The St Joseph's Church at Gliwicka 76 was built in 1898-1900 as a vow kept after the 1896 catastrophe in the Cleophas mine, which cost the lives of over a hundred miners. It was designed by Ludwig Schneider, and the tall tower above the crossing dominates the area.
The “Betania” Pentecostal Church Congregation at Gliwicka 267 stands on a circular plan with a dome nearly 40 metres across. It was designed by Kazimierz Poniatowski.
The Chapel of the Good Thief at Gliwicka 32 is a cemetery chapel in the Neo-Gothic style, dating from 1875 and designed by Alexis Langer. Old Catholics used it for years, and it has been listed as a monument since 2011.
