The Church was built between 1907-1923 and designed by Luke Wolski. The founder of the church was Michael Peter Radziwill, from which the name of this part of Prague called Michałów. Initiated the construction of a person's development, and the temple was, however, his wife Maria of Kieżgajłłów-Zawisza Radziwill. The start of construction of the temple comes at a time of ecclesial renewal of life in Poland after the decree of Tsar issued in 1905 by allowing, inter alia, the creation of new parishes.
The columns separating the nave of the basilica of the side aisles were originally made for the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls in Rome. Proved to be too short and were sold in 1915 Radziwiłłowowej Zawisza Maria, who gave them to the needs of the church built in Warsaw.
