Church of St. Apostles Philip and Jacob

Book Review by: majka24    

Original Author: um
Church of St. Apostles Philip and Jacob The first information comes from 1376 and 1447. This shrine is an example of late
Gothic. Many – sided apsyda, sacristy, treasury, chapel and entrance porches come from later time. It is a rare example of hall construction. The church has got one main entrance with portal, one entrance on the south wall of the nave and one entrance to presbytery. Six slender pillars separate two aisles from the nave. Around the wall holes bricks and stones have been used. The walls still contain elements of a Wend brick structure. Building this temple next to the defensive walls was not coincidental. The church, thanks to its high walls and towering belfry, also protected citizens from invaders.
