The Roman Catholic Church in Piešťany, dedicated to St. Stephen, is in the old town of Piešťany, Slovakia and is a national cultural monument.[1] The first mention of the Roman Catholic parish and church is from the year 1332. The current church was built between 1828 and 1832 in a classic Empire style.[2] The walls and one arch in the choir began to split. The church was also affected by two earthquakes.
