Fortunately she did not fall in...

 Hunting decor is apparently as popular in Poland as it is in the Czech Republic...  

This is the chandelier in the sanctuary.

Before Easter, each church will have a special side chapel where the tomb of Christ is symbolically represented.

Beautiful organ with the sunlight coming through the windows.
