Kościół i klasztor Brygidek w Warszawie, Catholic convent and church in Muranow district, Warsaw, Poland

The Bridgettine complex stood at the intersection of Dluga and Nalewki streets, featuring a Baroque church designed by Giovanni Battista Gisleni in 1652.

The Warsaw convent, established in 1615 by Krzysztof Lipski, functioned until 1807 when French soldiers occupied the buildings, leading to its dissolution.

The convent provided sanctuary rights to individuals seeking protection, and the sisters maintained judicial authority over the surrounding Nowolipie territory until 1766.

The religious complex underwent classical style reconstruction under Wilhelm Heinrich Minter before its complete demolition in 1892 for the Simons Passage development.

Two original Baroque statues from the church facade survived and are now preserved in Raszyn, serving as the last physical remnants of this religious structure.
