The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lichen is located in Greater Poland in a village called Stary Licheñ, near Konin.

The Sanctuary is Poland's largest church, the seventh largest in Europe and eleventh in the World. It was constructed between 1994 and 2004. The architect was Barbara Bielecka.

The Basilica is being built in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary and receives a large number of pilgrims. It houses a 200-year-old painting known as the "Our Lady of Sorrows, Queen of Poland".

The church, rising 98 meters (central nave), 141,5 metres (church tower), is 120 metres long and 77 metres in width.

Swego czasu narzekali¶my na gigantomaniê naszego wschodniego s±siada (jako¶ dziwnie nie porusza³o nas to samo za oceanem), a sami nie jeste¶my wolni od takich sk³onno¶ci. Co by jednak nie mówiæ, obiekt jest zaskakuj±cym sw± architektur±, przepychem (jak na nasze marne warunki) no i ogromem. Bardzo ladnie uda³o siê to Tobie pokazac w jednym dobrym kadrze.
Pozdrawiam serdecznie,
Jurek

Hi Georg,
superb clarity and good choice of the framing to offer a lot of the architecture. Wonderful details by the sharpness.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hi Georg,

hi georg,
excellent angle and very good colours.the details are beautiful and rich.
well done.

Ali

This is a wonderful building; the architecture is superb. You managed to get far enough away to include all of it in the frame, but we can still see people around it. They are so tiny that we can appreciate the size of the church.
Kath

No ta budowla tez na mnie wrazenie zrobila!! Na Twojej fotce siwetnie ujeta, pogoda sprzyjala do super fotek!!
Pozdrawiam

Oh, really, this is a very interesting place! Never seen such a architecture, great contribution!

Hej Jurek,
Uuuuuuuuuu - to robi wrażenie!
Chciałbym tam kiedyś pojechać i porobić trochę fotek, może uda mi się wiosną.
Fanem pielgrzymkowego biznesu nie jestem ale ten wytwór chorej wyobraźni architekta i gigantomanii miejscowych księży jest wymarzony do ostrzelania obiektywem z szerokiego kąta... :)
Piękna kompozycja kadru, doskonałe kolory i ostrość. Obiektyw Ci troszkę beczkuje ale to widać dopiero przy specyficznych ujęciach z max szerokiego kąta.
Pozdrowionka.
