Amen
Great blend if gothic arhitecure with elements of baroque and renesans.Love its look.
Church of St. John the Baptist in Krotoszyn was raised to the dignity of a minor basilica on June 23, 2019.
The temple was built by Jan Rozdrażewski in the years 1592-1597. The church was restored after a fire in 1774. It is a late Gothic building, with three naves and a tower. It has very rich interior furnishings from the 17th and 18th centuries. In the three-story main altar there is a copy of Rubens' famous painting "The Descent from the Cross". On the profiled chancel beam there is a Gothic passion group from the end of the 15th century. The church has as many as 11 side altars.
In the southern aisle there is a Renaissance tombstone of the founder of the church, Jan Rozdrażewski, who died in 1600.
In this place, on September 29, 1893, Blessed Bishop Michał Kozal received the sacrament of baptism. In the right nave there are the relics of the blessed. Michał Kozala. On June 23, 2019, it was raised to the dignity of a minor basilica.
A beautiful, atmospheric place.
There is a nice atmosphere, and a beautiful interior and well-kept surroundings of the church.
My Church. From baptism onwards, I received all the sacraments here and during the years I was an altar boy here. I managed to return to this parish in my old age, and not only that, I have a beautiful view of the basilica from the windows.
A beautiful old church that pleases the eye and the soul.
