Holy Cross Church (Kosciol Swietego Krzyza)

Reviewed By B5144FIjohnh - London, United Kingdom

The church of the Holy Cross dates back to the 17th century but has been severely damaged more than once, most recently by the German invaders during WWII. It has been used for many important ceremonies including the funeral of the political thinker Stanislaw Staszic (1755-1826), & Fryderyk Chopin's heart is interred in one of the main pillars. The restored interior is light & features lots of fresh gilding, magnificent altars & a very grand organ.

St. Anne's Church (Kosciol Swietej Anny)

Reviewed By MikaelF413 - Vantaa, Finland

This church is located adjacent to Castle Square. This amazing church can be overlooked because Castle Square is stealing all the attention. Also, this church looks very different from the outside than the other churches on the Royal Route. It has a Neoclassical facade. The interior has a Baroque style with several chapels. The surprisingly rich interior is filled with frescoes. Not only the interior is stunning but there is also a viewing terrace that has panoramic views of Warsaw Old Town.

Reviewed By saulg2 - Tel Aviv, Israel

Another church on Krakowskie Przedmiescie BLV , originally wooden built in 1643 , and burned down by the Swedes a few years later . The church has a Neoclassical style facade , with two small censer-like shape bell towers . The church was only slightly damaged during WWII . The interior is not that glitzy , but Chopin did play the organ here . Have your cameras handy , and note the Monument of Adam Mickiewicz , in the adjacent small garden .
