The village of Kramsk, not far from Konin, isn't probably an interesting place to live. However, it is interesting thanks to a beautiful neobaroque church. The sacred building has existed in the town since the Middle Ages, but it was constructed of wood.The church is built on the plan of the Latin cross and is decorated with beautifully painted murals. We will also find well-made copies of such famous paintings as ''the Last Supper'' by Leonardo da Vinci and Rubens's ''Descent from the Cross'' .The most valuable are the historic stairs leading to the choir. The church is surrounded by a cemetery, where you can also find historic tombstones. The new building was built in 1844, and some of the missing money for construction was even given by the Jewish community—amazing cooperation that isn't possible nowadays.
The church itself is considered as one of the most valuable in the diocese. It's also one of the first churches in the Konin region. The author of the paintings is Antoni Szulczyński, a painter who moved towards the wheelchair at the end of his life. He was very valued during his life; he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow, and then he studied in Vienna, Rome, Munich, and Vilnius.The building's effect is enhanced by its location on a hill with stairs,thanks to which it is sometimes compared to the Roman Trinita dei Monti.
