The emergence in recent decades of the idea of sustainability and sustainable development significantly
affected the innovative approach to architectural design and urban planning. The article presents contemporary
examples of the Polish works of sacred architecture and urban planning, which prove the unconscious use and
incorporation of the concept of the architectural values of the environment, including climate, solar energy and other
natural elements such as landform, structure or green water. The analysis of the contemporary examples
of architecture, realized in the second half of the twentieth century, confirms that such actions are taken. The search
for a friendly urban space combines the comfort of living with the comfort of the natural environment.
The contemporary objects and sacral complexes testify to integrated planning with nature. The system of architectural
and urban planning objectives is clearly reflected in the functioning of thecity and how to organize the use of space,
including an attempt to rebuild a sustainable relationship between the infrastructure and the natural environment.
When designing the contemporary forms, sacred has become very important in addition to the historical past, the
identity of individual urban structures, at the same time, maintaining the high quality of the environment. Projecting
of harmony with the local climate and the use of natural conditions in urban planning.
