Temple of Peace in Lower Silesia.

The Church of Peace in Jawor is over 350 years old.

Three churches of peace were built. Two of them in Jawor and Świdnica have survived to this day. The third of the churches was built in Głogów, but burned down in 1758. during the great fire of the city.

Galleries in the Church of Peace.

Multi-level galleries gave the opportunity to accommodate even several thousand believers during services.

The interior design is unusual for a Protestant church. The Church of Peace in Jawor impresses with the baroque splendor of the interior design, contrasting with the simplicity of the half-timbered structure of the building’s body from the outside.
