Customer Reviews
One of only three lutheran churches allowed to be constructed in Poland during the second half of the 17th century. Of the three, only two remain, those in Lawor and Swidnica. They now belong to the Unesco world heritage. When I visited in July of 2025 I was the only visitor. You pay an entrance fee upon which you have to pay an additional fee if you are taking photographs. The church is constructed using the same materials as in many regular houses of its time, wooden beams, clay and straw. The interior is beautifully decorated in baroque style and can seat up to 6000 people on several rows of balconies. A marvelous experience that you definitely should not miss if you are in the region of any of these two cities.
A stunning example of 17th-century engineering and religious resilience. Built entirely out of wood, without nails, in just one year – and it still stands strong nearly 400 years later. A must-see for anyone interested in architecture, history, or how to outsmart imperial restrictions. And yes, they accept card payments – bless modernity.
The church is absolutely stunning, and well worth the visit and drive despite it being out of the way from normal tourist stops. To our surprise, when we paid the entrance fee he put English audio on over the speakers that narrated the history of the church. I know it's in several other languages as he did the same for other visitors. It was quiet and peaceful and we explored the nooks and crannies downstairs. The Church of Peace in Jawor was built in the mid-17th century after the Thirty Years’ War, when Protestants were granted the rare right to build a place of worship—but only under strict conditions. The church had to be constructed outside city walls, without a bell tower, and using only perishable materials like wood, straw, and clay. Despite these limitations, it became a stunning example of timber-frame architecture and is a marvel to wonder at today.
