Shortlisted in the civic and cultural interior of the year of Dezeen Awards 2020, Robert Gutowski Architects has designed Church of Pope John Paul II in Páty as part of a restricted design contest.

The entire design and construction process was carried out with the organisation and involvement of the local community.

The building was erected mainly with the help of donations and was consecrated in 2019.

The Church of Pope John Paul II represents a conscious response to liturgical changes in recent decades, rendering it a model church experiment in contemporary church architecture.
