The church is beautiful, but the setting for the mass is a disaster, Mr. organist!!! This is impossible to listen to, have you heard yourself????

It's impossible to listen to this organist's screeching - your ears literally bleed. It's strange that the parish priest doesn't hear this and doesn't ask one of the parishioners (e.g. from the choir) for help with singing...

We weren't allowed to see the interior because the church was closed at high noon. From the outside it looks dignified and impressive

Ładny zadbany kościół. Dobre nagłośnienie, Ciekawe kazania.

The church dates back to the turn of the century, built in brick in the Gothic style. The equipment of the church comes from the Baroque period, although there are Gothic, Renaissance and Neo-Gothic elements. Over the centuries, the temple was destroyed by fire and robbed of the equipment by invaders and rebuilt. The church received its current shape in the nineteenth century.

Rosenborg Castle

Rosenborg Palace was built in the period 1606-34 as Christian IV’s summerhouse just outside the ramparts of Copenhagen. Christian IV was very fond of the palace and often stayed at the castle when he resided in Copenhagen, and it was here that he died in 1648. After his death, the palace passed to his son King Frederik III, who together with his queen, Sophie Amalie, carried out several types of modernisation.

The last king who used the place as a residence was Frederik IV, and around 1720, Rosenborg was abandoned in favor of Frederiksborg Palace.Through the 1700s, considerable art treasures were collected at Rosenborg Castle, among other things items from the estates of deceased royalty and from Christiansborg after the fire there in 1794.

Soon the idea of a museum arose, and that was realised in 1833, which is The Royal Danish Collection’s official year of establishment.
