The 'Railway Church' inside

This is the interior of the 'Railway Church'. The photos were taken in weekday. Some of the churches in Nowy Sacz are opened all day long. You can go there and pray every time you want.
Tomorrow, we will post interesting and 'very railway' details from this church:) So see you tomorrow!:)

The church of railwaymen

This church was built in 1899 in the new district of Nowy Sacz. The development of this part of the town was connected with the popularization of the railway in our region. Mainly railwaymen with their families lived in this district of Nowy Sacz. This church was built for this community, this is why it is called 'Railway Church'.Not far away from the church there is also the railway station and the company which produces and repairs trains.
