Nożyk Synagogue in Warsaw

The Church of St. Karol Boromeusz was built in 1841-49 in the neo-Renaissance style according to the design of Henryk Marconi. It was modelled on the Roman basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, the basilica of St. Paul behind the walls and the interior on the church of Notre-Dame-de-Lorette in Paris. The façade is flanked by two towers and preceded by a three-bay vestibule. On the façade are statues of the apostles Peter and Paul. The façade is crowned by a pediment with a tympanum depicting the patron saint of the church, Carlo Borromi, administering the sacrament of Holy Communion to the inhabitants of Milan during the plague epidemic of 1567.

One of the main monuments of Warsaw, the Holy Cross Church was built in 1682. Damaged during the Second World War, it was repaired after the war and still fulfills its role of church for the missionary brothers from Vincent de Paul.

St Augustine's Church was built at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries at the request of the Archbishop of Warsaw, Wincenty Teofil Popiel. In November 1940, the church became part of the Warsaw Ghetto. When the ghetto was liquidated, a warehouse was created in the church, where the stolen goods of the Jews were stored; later, the church was desecrated and turned into a stable. After the war, it was the highest and one of the few remaining buildings of the former ghetto.
