Poland is a fascinating country that serves as the geographical and cultural crossroads of Eastern and Western Europe. Located at the center of the Northern European plain, Poland has been a nation of survivors since the foundation of the first Polish state more than 1000 years ago. Through its turbulent history its people have managed to maintain their identity, and today, the country enjoys a crucial position as the largest of the former Eastern European states and one of the most populous members of the European Union.
Poland has a variety of striking landscapes, from the sandy beaches of the Baltic Sea coast in the north and the rolling central lowlands to the snowcapped peaks of the Carpathian and Sudeten Mountains in the south. Poland has more than 1,300 lakes throughout the country.

Landmarks of Swidnica (Lower Silesian Voivodeship), Poland GoPro 1080p
The city's name was first recorded as Svidnica in 1070, when it was part of Piast-ruled Poland. Swidnica became a town in 1250, although no founding document has survived that would confirm the fact. The town belonged, at the time, to the Duchy of Wroclaw, a province of Poland. By 1290, Swidnica had city walls and six gates. The city was famous for its beer production and it's Crafts and trade were blossoming. In various cities of the region (Wroclaw, Olesnica or Brzeg) and Europe (Krakow, Torun, Prague or Pisa) there were so-called Swidnica Cellars – restaurants serving beer from Swidnica. In Wroclaw, Swidnica Cellar (Piwnica Swidnicka) exists to this day as the oldest restaurant in Europe; Swidnica, Poland 2019. Shots were taken with GoPro Hero 7 Black 2.7K downsized to 1080p HD.
Katedra Świdnica or St Wenceslaus Cathedral or Swidnica Cathedral - Swidnica Poland - ECTV
The St. Stanislaus and St. Wenceslaus Cathedral[1] (Polish: Katedra św. Stanisława i św. Wacława), also called Świdnica Cathedral, is a historical monument and a main Catholic building in Świdnica, Poland.[2][3]
Construction of the current church began in 1330 at the behest of Duke Bolko II of Świdnica, following a fire that destroyed a wooden building that stood there. The new building, in Gothic style, was designed as a three-aisled basilica with a slender Gothic tower that measures 102 meters, the largest in the region.[4] Between 1400 and 1410 the building was expanded. In years 1535-1546 the church was renovated after it was greatly damaged in the fire of 1532.
From 1561 to 1629 the church was owned by Protestants[citation needed]. From 1662 it belonged to the Jesuits who in the years 1671-1688 have added to it baroque furniture and decorations that still characterize its interior.[4] With the gradual expulsion of the Jesuits of Prussian Silesia, the church was secularized in 1772 and the Prussian authorities converted it into a barn.[citation needed]
The church was renovated between 1893 and 1895[4] but lost many of its original architectural features. On March 25, 2004, with the bull Multos fructus, of Pope John Paul II, established the Catholic Diocese of Świdnica, and the building became the cathedral.

What a place! Today I take you through the beautiful city of Świdnica. I must say that it stole my heart. I walked the whole morning through this place in Lower Silesia. Rynek is stunning. The sunrise through the buildings. People getting ready for their day. Of course I visited the Church of Peace: Kosciół Pokoju. I had never seen anything like that before. And I climbed the Ratusz tower for some amazing views of the city and area. The mountains in the distance. Very special feelings up there. Sitting in the train and bus to Kłodzko I felt so much love from Poland and my journey.

Świdnica is a town that occupies the south-western part of Poland. The city is very often called the heart of Europe, which is also very closely related to its location - in the immediate vicinity of Świdnica there is the A4 motorway, which is an important element creating one of the European communication routes. When it comes to the geographical location of Świdnica, it is situated at the foot of the Sudetes and the Wałbrzyskie Mountains. It also covers the area of the Świdnica Plain. Świdnica is one of the largest cities in Lower Silesia (the city covers an area of approximately 21 square kilometers). Świdnica can pride itself on over 700 years of history. This historic city used to have a typical merchant character, it also served as one of the capitals of the former Duchy of Świdnica-Jawor.
The Old Town is considered to be the center of the whole Świdnica. Its areas began to take shape in the Middle Ages and in the following years it has undergone further transformations to the present day. What is the undeniable attraction of the whole city is the fact that both its center - the Old Town, and the outskirts are surrounded by as many as 11 beautiful and picturesque parks. Due to its geographic location, Świdnica is undoubtedly an important tourist center, visited by many visitors from various parts of Poland. In addition to its geographical values, the city can also boast some objects that make its visit a real paradise for many tourists. When talking about the monuments of Świdnica, it is necessary to mention some sacred buildings, which are very important in this city. One of such buildings is certainly the Church of Peace under the invocation of the Holy Trinity, which not only plays a significant role in Świdnica - it is also considered the most valuable sacred building related to the Protestant art of the entire Silesia. It is also a building that can boast of being the largest wooden church in the entire European continent. This sacred building is closely related to the Thirty Years' War, or rather its end, during which it was decided to build a church. Another extremely fascinating sacred building in Świdnica, which is visited by many tourists with great enthusiasm, is the cathedral of Saint Stanislaus and Wenceslaus. This monument also stands out in a special way both in Silesia and the whole country. It is the cathedral tower, which ranks third in terms of height in Poland, and it is the second among the buildings in Silesia.
While in Świdnica, it is impossible not to go, of course, in the direction of the famous Old Town, where the Świdnica market and the town hall are located. The unusual ornament of the market square, which is another considerable attraction for tourists, is a group of sculptures, which is the work of a local artist - Georg Weber. There are many more interesting objects in Świdnica that tell about the history, tradition and culture of this city.
Świdnica (Poland)
Świdnica (German: Schweidnitz; Czech: Svídnice) is a city in south-western Poland. It's quite small, but old and nice city. The Gothic Church of Ss. Stanislav and Vaclav from the 14th century has the highest tower in Silesia, standing 103 meters tall. The Evangelical Church of Peace, a UNESCO Heritage site, was built from 1656–57. The 16th-century town hall has been renovated numerous times and combines Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque architectural elements. The Baroque Church of St. Joseph and the Church of St. Christopher are from the same era. One remaining element of the former defensive works is the Chapel of St. Barbara.
Other notable destinations include the old town and the Stary Rynek square, Gola Dzierżoniowska Castle, Medieval town of Niemcza, Cistercian monastery at Henryków and the Wojsławice Arboretum.
The Church of Peace (inclusive of the Baroc Cafe), Swidnica, Poland GoPro 1080p
The Church of Peace in Swidnica (German: Schweidnitz) in Silesia was named after the Peace of Westphalia of 1648. It permitted the Lutherans of Silesia to build three churches from wood, loam and straw outside the city walls, without steeples and church bells. Also, the construction time was limited to one year only. Despite the physical and political constraints, three of the churches (with only two surviving) became the biggest timber-framed religious buildings in Europe due to its pioneering constructional and architectural solutions. The church in Swidnica is dedicated to the Holy Trinity. In 2001 was recognised by UNESCO and listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites; Swidnica, Poland 2019.

Chasing Polish Trains and Trams - KD Wroclaw to Swidnica Poland 🇵🇱#shorts
-UNESCO- Holy Trinity Church of Peace in Świdnica. Largest Wooden Church - Swidnica Poland - ECTV
The Holy Trinity Church of Peace in Świdnica - the largest wooden Baroque temple in Europe,[1] a historic religious building built under the agreements of the Treaty of Westphalia signed in 1648, which ended the Thirty Years' War.[2] It belongs to the Świdnica parish of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland. The building has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2001.[3]
Świdnica's Church of Peace was one of the three Churches of Peace (after Głogów and Jawor) that the Catholic Emperor Ferdinand III, under pressure from Protestant Sweden, allowed to be built in the Habsburg hereditary principalities in Silesia. All churches built by Catholics and taken over by Protestants were returned to the Catholic Church. After the war broke out, the Evangelicals were deprived of the right to profess their own faith and hold their own churches. However, in the principalities ruled by the Silesian Piasts - mostly Evangelicals - all churches were allowed to remain Protestant.
The construction of the Churches of Peace was intentionally subject to additional conditions that were to make their construction more difficult or, in the event of their completion, cause the temple to be used for a short period of time. The foundation stone of the church in Świdnica was laid on 23 August 1656. The author of the project was a Wrocław master builder Albrecht von Saebisch. The church was built by Andreas Kaemper, a carpenter from Świdnica. To raise funds for the construction a native of Świdnica Christian Czepko set off on a journey around European Protestant courts. Silesian Evangelicals of all social classes, from peasants to townsmen and noblemen, were involved in the construction.
After 10 months of construction the first service in the new Świdnica church was held on 24 June 1657.[1]
In 1708, during the Great Northern War, when the religious situation of Evangelicals improved, again under pressure from the Swedish king, a bell tower and an Evangelical school were built next to the church. Both buildings survived to this day.
Main altar
Although the church was founded as a result of religious conflicts, it is a symbol of reconciliation. In 1989, Polish Prime Minister Tadeusz Mazowiecki and German Chancellor Helmut Kohl prayed together for peace in the church. In 2011, the church hosted the Swedish royal couple Carl XVI Gustav and Queen Silvia. In 2014, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Polish Prime Minister Ewa Kopacz participated in an ecumenical prayer for peace. In September 2016, the Appeal for Peace was signed in the Świdnica church by representatives of Christian faiths, Judaism, Islam and Buddhism (represented by the Dalai Lama XIV).
The Church of Peace in Świdnica was built in the wattle and daub system as a centrally located building based on a wooden frame filled with a mass of clay and straw. It was built on a Greek cross plan. The central building was complemented by the Baptismal Hall and the sacristy in the east, the Hall of the Dead in the west, the Wedding Hall in the south, and the Field Hall in the north. It is 44 m long and 30.5 m wide. The first floor and four floors of galleries can accommodate 7,500 people (including 3,000 seats). The church was built with the intention to accommodate as many people as possible, which was important especially in the times when freedom of religion was restricted for Protestants, as it was one of the two Protestant churches in the Świdnica-Jawor Principality. Therefore, the temple has a vast internal space (1090 m2) and volume.
The altar and the pulpit are among the most valuable pieces of equipment in the church.
Pulpit
The Baroque pulpit, work of Gotfried August Hoffmann, dates back to 1729. The staircase is decorated with biblical scenes: Pentecost, Golgotha and Paradise. The balustrade has carved allegories of Faith, Hope and Love. Above the door to the pulpit is a sculpture of Jesus the Good Shepherd.
Ceiling
The main altar, also a work of Hoffmann, was commissioned for the church's centennial in 1752 and completed the following year. Above the altar mensa is a small relief depicting the Last Supper. The center features the Baptism of Christ and the figures of Moses, High Priest Aaron and the apostles Peter and Paul. Above, a frieze with the inscription rests on six Corinthian columns: Dies ist mein geliebter Sohn, an dem ich Wohlgefallen habe (This is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased - Matthew 3:17). In the center, at the height of the frieze, is an allegory of the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove. Above, under the canopy, a golden triangle, surrounded by rays, with the tetragram of God's name written in Hebrew script - an allegory of God the Father. At the top of the altar, a lamb with a flag stands on a book with seven seals.
