Roman Catholic Churches and Monasteries of the Former Trakai Voivodeship. Grodno. Part IV, volume 4

The fourth and final volume in the series dedicated to monuments of religious architecture from the former Trakai Voivodeship discusses three no longer existing objects in Grodno: the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (the so-called Witold parish church) together with the parish hospital of the Holy Spirit, and the monastery complex of Discalced Carmelites with the Church of the Raising of the Holy Cross.

These objects were situated in central locations in the city and although none of them survived until this day, their artistic qualities and complex histories are important for Grodno’s cultural panorama.

Description and discussion of architecture is accompanied by complex presentation of the interior and movable and immovable church decoration. The book comprises a list of used archive materials, bibliography, name and place index, and a list of illustrations.
