    The Church of St. Peter and St. Paul is a Roman Catholic church. The construction started on 29 June 1668 (the day of the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul) under the supervision of Jan Zaor from Kraków and was finished in 1676 by Giovanni Battista Frediani. Its interior has masterful compositions of some 2,000 stucco figures by Giovanni Pietro Perti and ornamentation by Giovanni Maria Galli and is unique in Europe. The church is considered a masterpiece of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth Baroque. A boat-shaped chandelier made of brass and glass beads hangs from the middle of the dome and reminds us that Saint Peter was a fisherman. Made by craftsmen from Liepāja and installed in 1905.Baca lagi
