CHURCH OF THE HOLY CROSS

Located behind the Słowacki Theater, this 15th-century red-brick Gothic church, quite simple in appearance from the outside, is well worth a visit. The nave is topped by a Gothic star vault supported by a single central pillar symbolizing the new tree of life embodied by the cross of Christ, typical of the hospitable order of the Holy Spirit of Saxia to which the church belonged. The side walls are decorated with precious gothic frescoes.
