Church of St. Andrew the Apostle

Local name: Kościół św. Andrzeja Apostoła

St. parish Andrew the Apostle is housed in the neo-Renaissance church of Karol Boromeusz. Built on the basis of a design by Henryk Marconi, it is modeled on the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome and features elements characteristic of the Italian Renaissance.

When visiting the temple, it is worth taking a look at the tympanum crowning the pediment, which features the image of Karol Boromeusz, who gives communion to the inhabitants of Milan during the epidemic of the sea in 1576. On the other hand, inside the building, the altars in the side naves, which belong to the original equipment of the church from 1887, are noteworthy. Side elevations with niches are also eye-catching, with sculptures of Polish patrons, blessed and saints, including St. Wojciech, Saint. Jadwiga or Saint. Jan Kante.
