St. Peter and Paul Church

The church was completed in the middle of the 15th century. It replaced an old Romanesque house of worship from the 12th century at the same location. In 1634, the church was destroyed by a fire and its interior was renovated with Baroque-style ornaments. In 1791, the church burned down again and was rebuilt a short time later. From 1666, the church belonged to the Capuchin Monastery in Wroclaw. The Capuchins held their services and preached there. In the course of secularization, the monastery was dissolved. During the Napoleonic Wars at the beginning of the 19th century, the church served as a lazaret. In 1884, the interior of the church was renovated and redesigned in Neo-Gothic style. During the Second World War, the church was severely damaged. An estimated 40 percent of the church building was destroyed by bombing. Between 1952 and 1953, the church was faithfully reconstructed and regained its Gothic appearance. The church has a width of 14 m and a length of 24 m.
