Church of St Andrew Apostle

St. Andrew's Church in Kraków is a Romanesque church, founded in 1079 by palatine Sieciech. It was built between 1079-1098. Along the bottom of the larger part of facade are small openings. The openings are defensive windows, unique to a church and part of the defensive character of building. Built in Romanesque style, it is one of the oldest buildings in Kraków, and from 1320 it was used by the Order of St. Klara's. The Baroque interiors have decorations by Baltazar Fontana, paintings by Karol Dankwart and gilded alters.
