Protestantism in Poland
Protestantism in Poland is the third largest faith in Poland, after the Roman Catholic Church (32,910,865) and the Polish Orthodox Church (504,400).[1] As of 2011 there were approximately 80 registered Protestant denominations in Poland, with a total of 145,600 members.[2] Most Protestants (mainly Lutherans) in the country live in historically Protestant regions such as Cieszyn Silesia and Warmia-Masuria and in major urban areas. However, almost all urban and rural areas in Poland are predominantly Roman Catholic. The only town in the country with a majority Protestant population is Wisła.[3]
Major denominations (with at least two thousand followers) classified as Protestant by Poland's Central Statistical Office (as of 2017) include:[1]
- Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland: 61,270 members
- Pentecostal Church in Poland: 23,984 adherents
- Seventh-day Adventist Church in Poland: 9,660 adherents
- Fellowship of Christian Churches in Poland (Kościół Chrystusowy w RP): 5,869 adherents
- New Apostolic Church in Poland: 5,633 adherents
