Comment: The catholic church of the Holy Spirit was built in the years of 1753-1770 by Dominicans, in a style of late baroque. Now this church is the main church of Polish Catholics. The Holy Spirit's church is very rich in interior details - there are almost no places without any fresco, sculpture or painting.
