The Saint Anthony of Padua Church in Sokółka is a Roman Catholic sanctuary built in 1840-1848 where an Eucharistic miracle took place.
The church of Saint Anthony of Padua was consecrated on the 9th of June, 1850. Between 1901 and 1904, a sacristy, two extra naves and chapels and other rooms were built by priest Anzelm Noniewic.[1]
The building did not suffer major damages during the Second World War and was renovated after the war. New wooden benches were installed and the Organ was replaced. An electrical installation was installed after the war.[1]
