Church of St. Elizabeth of Hungary

Church of Sts. Elisabeth of Hungary is a gothic temple rebuilt later in Baroque style. It is a one-nave building with a high tower above the entrance. Inside, you can see baroque side altars and paintings of the patroness of the temple. The main votive altar of the Viennese people is from the 19th century.

The first church in this place was already in the late 13th century. But it was a wooden temple. At the turn of the 14th and 15th century a brick church was erected. On several occasions it was destroyed by fires and owed its appearance to baroque reconstruction.

The body of the temple is simple, one nave with a tower covered with a baroque helmet. The main altarpiece made in Neo-Baroque style in the second half of the nineteenth century presents patron saint Elisabeth and statues of Saints Peter and Paul. There is also a plaque dedicated to the victory at Vienna and the visit of King John III Sobieski. He met in Stary Sącz with his wife Marysieńka returning from Vienna. Side altars, founded by local craftsmen, date back to the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries. In the side chapels there is an image depicting the vows of chastity by the holy Kinga and the revered statue of Christ of 1700.
