Church of the Visitation in Sejny
Church of the Visitation in Sejny, Baroque basilica in Sejny, Poland
The Church of the Visitation displays two high towers and a three-tiered facade adorned with architectural details in the Vilnia Baroque style.
Dominican monks initiated the construction of this religious complex in 1610, completing the initial structure by 1619 and receiving consecration in 1632.
The wooden Gothic statue of the Virgin Mary with Child from the 15th century remains the most valuable artifact inside the basilica.
The basilica houses the Diocesan and Ethnographic Museum, which presents exhibitions about regional history through artifacts and documents.
After the Prussian authorities dissolved the Dominican monastery in 1804, the seminary established here gained recognition as the 'Oxford of the North'.
