About this tour
This session looks inside Fara Church, a Baroque building often ranked among the most richly decorated in Poland. You see the golden interior in detail and the high altar specifically, built up over decades of craftsmanship. It is a short, focused session on one exceptional interior.
I start with a sound check at the entrance, then move slowly towards the high altar, pointing out details along the way. Questions are welcome throughout, and I send a short note afterwards on the church's construction history.
This suits anyone interested in Baroque art or church interiors specifically. It also works well as a short, calmer session alongside the old market square walk.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included
- Internet connection
- Travel to the city

Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: St Martin's croissant (rogal świętomarciński) and Jeżyce, worth a slower look.
