Altar in Hrodna's main Catholic church consecrated after restoration

Автор:


Hundreds of believers attended a consecration ceremony for a restored altar in an 18th-century Catholic church in Hrodna on August 5.

Part of the St. Xavier Church's 21-meter late Baroque wooden altar was damaged in 2006 by a fire caused by faulty wiring.

The altar was restored to its original appearance with the help of photographs. The project involved Belarusian and Lithuanian workers and was supervised by Pawel Sadlej, chief restorer at the Royal Castle in Warsaw.
