Description
It"s the oldest church in Kielce. The first wooden building was erected at the turn of the 11th century. The next church was founded by canon Józef Rogalla in 1763. It was made of brick and acquired the Baroque appearance. The present neoclassical shape of St Adalbert"s Church is due to subsequent remodelings in the 19th century. Inside the church visitors can admire paintings by Jan Styka, the author of the famous Panorama of Racławice, who lived in Kielce in the years 1888-90.
