@@wymak478 thank you for the kind comment, I’m glad you enjoyed it. I spent quite a long time there. Probably around 3 and a half hours following the audio headset tour guide. I’d definitely set aside a whole day at Malbork to enjoy it at a relaxed pace and take it all in. I think I just bought a standard ticket, it comes with an audio guide which I’d highly recommend using. It would be very easy to get lost without it. You can always free wander around after it’s all done 😊

I did my degree thesis on Pugin back in the 1970s - back then all this was thought of as OTT, ugly & kitsch. Likewise other gothic revival masterpieces. Thank goodness they are now revered as the works of art they actually are. For my thesis, I travelled by a series of buses from Sheffield to Cheadle. Took ages!!! When I walked into St Giles, I was overcome with emotion, awe and wonder. In those days, I just had an old flash bulb camera where you had to wait for the film to be processed and printed.

May I commend the Polish people and government for their care for the Ukrainian people and refugees. I know Poland stills has their own difficulties but are still able recognize the pain they unfortunately had to endure for so many years. God bless you all. I know God is in your hearts to care for those in danger through, like yourselves, no fault of their own.

The invasion of Poland was NOT the start of WWII. I don't know who decided it was. The Germans invaded Czechoslovakia before they invaded Poland. Did the Germans invade elsewhere before Czechoslovakia? I don't know.
@HikingAndHistory6 ай бұрын
I did mention that some people consider it to be 1937 too because of the conflict between China and Japan. But I suppose it’s just generally regarded as the invasion of Poland really woke Britain and France up.

And, Ben Nevis is the highest mountain in the UK and Ireland (the Britsh Isles), not just Great Britain.

How wonderfully close one feels to God in such a church. I regret so much the destruction of the 'Reformation', as did KIng Henry VIII's closest friend, the Duke of Suffolk who, when asked by Henry, whether he was right to do what he had done to the Church, replied, 'England was merry once. I wish she were again.' By the way, gentlemen are required to remove their headdress in church, especially a Catholic church, owing to the real presence of Our Lord in the Tabernacle that you passed in front of in the side chapel. The saint with the dog is probably St Roch, patron saint of plague sufferers.

Wonderful church. It gets a mention in Simon Jenkins' book "England's Thousand Best Churches". Apparently the church was commissioned in 1841 by the Earl of Shrewsbury. Pugin was only 29 at the time! According to Simon Jenkins "the only disappointment is the pews - dull and uncomfortable".
