The Basilica of St. Elizabeth is a Catholic Church of Wroclaw. A Gothic spire from the 14th century was built with the completion of the church, but was rebuilt between 1531 and 1535 in a Renaissance style. There is an observation deck near the top of the church, open to the public.
St. Matthew Church is a Gothic brick church dating from the 13th century. First a Knights of the Cross monastery with a red star, it became an auxiliary parish church in the 19th century. Restored in the years 1895-1896, damaged during the battles of 1945, the church was neglected for a long time. It was finally rebuilt in the years 1961-1966.
The White Stork Synagogue opened in 1829 and is designed in a Neoclassical style by the architect Carl Ferdinand Langhans. The synagogue was in use until 1974 when it was taken by authorities and given to the University of Wroclaw. In 2010 reconstruction on the synagogue was completed and it is now a Jewish heritage museum.
St. Dorothea is a 14th century Gothic hall church, originally an augustinian hermits monastery, and then Franciscan. After the dissolution of the order in 1810, the building experienced a century of decay; the building was finally fully restored after the second world war.
