The Church of Saint Matthias in Kruszyna
Kruszyna (9.41 km)
The Parish Church of Saint Matthias in Kruszyna, a communal village situated north of Częstochowa, was built in the second half of the seventeenth century, when the owner of the village was the wealthy family of the Denhoffs. The church was expanded and modernized several times, but it has retained the Baroque style. The most impressive is the the main facade with two slender towers. Above the gate of the church we can see a figure of Christ, which brought here from Krakowskie Przedmieście, a district of Warsaw.
