Lublin Cathedral
This beautiful church is full of real treasures. The name of the acoustic vestry refers to its amazing acoustic properties. If you stand in a corner, facing the wall, and whisper, you can communicate with the person in the opposite corner. The ceiling carries sound that cannot be heard by people standing in the middle of the vestry. The fresco on the ceiling depicts a triumph of the Catholic faith over heretics. In the vestry there are also historic exhibits and crypts.
