Church of St. Anne (Kościół św. Anny)


General

Enhedstype:

The church built in the second half of the 18th century, from the founds of then-owner of Wilanów, Prince August Adam Czartoryski.

Brick church built in the second half of the 18th century, from the founds of then-owner of Wilanów, Prince August Adam Czartoryski. During WWI and WWII the temple was looted and its surroundings devastated; during the Warsaw Uprising in 1944, the Germans turned the church into a place for internees, especially those from the Warsaw intelligentsia and of the capital's surrounding areas, and a complete restoration project did not begin until the 1980s. Inside you can enjoy beautiful scenery and ancient sarcophagi and epitaphs of Wilanów owners, whose graves are located in the chapel crypt. In the newly-built Tower of the Third Millennium there are two bells from 1723 and 1777, which were hidden away by the people of Wilanów in the church's domes, which is how they survived the two world wars. The church is surrounded by the Stations of the Cross designed in the 19th century.
