    The neoclassical facade of St. Anne's is not very attention-getting, but the ornate Baroque interior is fabulous -- the most beautiful church in Warsaw. Fantastic pulpit and pipe organ. Adjacent to the main church building is the church tower, with a viewing terrace offering the best views of the Castle Square and Old Town.

    We have a family there so visit often but it is a museum. Full of sculpture and important Polish personalities. Visiting when it is full of candles on All Souls’ Day is magical. If you like cemeteries, and I do, well worth a visit.

    The Holy Cross Church has a rather plain exterior and although quite large inside is less ornate than several other churches in Warsaw. Like so many others, this church was completely destroyed during WWII and rebuilt after the war (the Poles deserve lots of credit for the tremendous work in reconstructing and rebuilding after the war!). What is most notable about this church is that its is the resting place of Chopin’s heart, which is interred in an interior pillar of the church (you can't really see the heart, but a sign indicates where it is placed. The church is also known for having the largest pipe organ in Warsaw,

    Small, but important reminder of Warsaw’s Jewish History. It is the only pre-WWII synagogue still standing. The interior is simple, but beautiful example of the time period. The synagogue is still in use by the Jewish Community. Full visit is about 20 minutes.

    It is surprising that there are not more reviews for this church, but it may be that many visitors confuse this church with the nearby Church of St. Joseph’s of the Visitationists. The Carmalite Church (officially the "Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and St. Joseph the Betrothed") has a two-tiered, four pillared neo-classical façade with two small matching belfries. The monument to Adam Mickiewicz stands near the front of the church. The interior is decorated with ornate gilded Rococo features. This church is reportedly where Chopin was first employed to play the organ (adding to the confusion, Chopin reportedly later played organ regularly at the nearby Church of St. Joseph’s of the Visitationists).

    A relatively small gothic church behind the New Town in Warsaw, it's mostly known for being the oldest temple in the city. Also, there's a view of Vistula river next to it.

    While walking around Warsaw, we came upon the Holy Trinity Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Confession. This is a beautiful church and persons interesting in architecture and religion would likely enjoy it.

    This, relatively small, church was built by order of queen mary by the Dutch architect Tylman von Gameren, also known as Gamerski. It is baroque in style and is located next to the market square of the New Town.

    We got to celebrate Mass here at the Capuchin Friars Church. It is a lovely little church. The art work here is quite nice and they have some wonderful side chapels.

    Praga has many interesting sights, such as this courtyard kapliczka which we encountered during a Praga Sensory Walking Tour. Lovely and well maintained kapliczka. Good for a moment of contemplation. Photogenic.
