De binnenkant is prachtig. Je moet onder begeleiding naar binnen. Koop een kaartje tegenover de kerk. Bijzondere kerk, oud. Impossante sfeer met prachtig houtsnijwerk.
You must come here when you are in this city to see famous work of mister pavol. But these days it is in revonstruction so its harder to see
This is a church you must go and admire its world's highest wooden alter, built by Master Paul of Levoca, the most reputable of his kind in Slovakia.The entry is only possible with a guide, so be aware about the opening hours and be there on time once you have purchased a ticket.Taking pictures inside the church is not allowed for obvious reasons, but you can buy some souvenirs and photographs in good quality in the souvenir shop / pay office.
The wooden altar was grand, the and church was a delight to visit. I love church architecture, and this is not one to miss if you have a similar interest and are in the area.
Like - very interesting church and altarDislike - the church is often closed
Not just 18,6 m Gothic "World Guiness" of altars occupied by figures of Madonna, St Jacob an St John, but also worth seeing outside.
旧市街の中心地にある。14世紀からあったが16世紀に改築された。60mの尖塔をもち祭壇は1696年の作。訪れたときは小学生の集団が見学に来ていて、ちょっと騒々しかった。中の撮影は禁止だった。迎え側に小さなギフトショップがあって、絵葉書などが購入できる。
Die Kirche ist sehr interessant mit vielen Stücken von großen Werten (Holzstatuen vom Mister Paulus, Malereien,...). Begleitpersonal war nicht besonders freundlich, man kann nur in bestimmten Zeiten die Kirche be suchen (Gruppen über 20 Personen können den Eintritt vereinbaren), Es gab keine Betreuung auf Deutsch.
The church of St James (sv. Jacub) has a set of some 18 altar pieces & the main high altar is 61 ft high, all carved in wood by the celebrated woodcarver, Paul (sv Pavol) of Levoka. There seems to be a different altar at each available pillar - the church has one of the finest & most compact collections of medieval & renaissance sacred art you will see anywhere. There are restricted opening hours - best time your visit for between 3pm & 4pm. We went on a dark day & so could not see very well, altho there is some electric lighting.The well preserved main square of Levoca has some amazing facades of houses - I wish we had had longer in this interesting old town
Lovely Church in the Old Town. Just as the town next door it is full of charm and yet magesty when compared to the small town houses. Many altars, pillars are worth seeing, assuming you are lucky to have found the church open.
