Church of St. The Trinity Church in Strzelno is a basilica by its architectural foundation, today we know that it still retains Romanesque features, although it was Gothicized and Baroque. The most important altar in the church is the altar of the Holy Cross, which was formerly the main altar. By the way, it is worth mentioning that there are as many as 658 relics of saints and martyrs there; there are more only at Wawel in Krakow. The church, a valuable historical monument with very well-preserved Romanesque columns (vices and virtues), as well as tympana. It is a must to visit it, preferably with a guide, because then all the places, artifacts and curiosities are at your fingertips - an open church. It is worth adding that Archbishop Stanisław Gądecki was an altar boy in this church.

We do not have many monuments of this class in Poland, Romanesque art as a medicine. Value, watch and delight!

Church of the Holy Trinity and the Blessed Virgin Mary in Strzelno. He belonged to the Norbertine abbey. The construction of the church from granite cubes began in the 12th century and was not completed until the mid-13th century. In 1216 his solemn consecration took place. A historical monument from 2018. TV

Miejsce polecane do zobaczenia. Dla pasjonatów historii i nie tylko. Mona tu poczuć magię dawnych czasów.

Baroque front. And the side walls have retained the Romanesque and Gothic elements. There are many antique elements in the interior. And the famous Romanesque columns. The monument is underestimated

Rosenborg Castle

Rosenborg Palace was built in the period 1606-34 as Christian IV’s summerhouse just outside the ramparts of Copenhagen. Christian IV was very fond of the palace and often stayed at the castle when he resided in Copenhagen, and it was here that he died in 1648. After his death, the palace passed to his son King Frederik III, who together with his queen, Sophie Amalie, carried out several types of modernisation.

The last king who used the place as a residence was Frederik IV, and around 1720, Rosenborg was abandoned in favor of Frederiksborg Palace.Through the 1700s, considerable art treasures were collected at Rosenborg Castle, among other things items from the estates of deceased royalty and from Christiansborg after the fire there in 1794.

Soon the idea of a museum arose, and that was realised in 1833, which is The Royal Danish Collection’s official year of establishment.
