Lonely Planet review for Franciscan Church of St John the Baptist

The Baroque Franciscan Church of St John the Baptist, southwest of the castle and north of the Rynek, is Legnica’s most important church. The chapel off the right-hand (east) wall is actually the sanctuary of the former Gothic church, set at right angles to the existing one. Richly decorated, with a spectacular painted ceiling, the chapel also houses the extravagant Legnica Piasts mausoleum. Enquire at the Museum of Copper nearby and they will open the chapel for you and show you around.
