Former structures
The Carmelite Church in Nowy Wiśnicz was established by Stanisław Lubomirski, voivode of Kraków to commemorate the victory over the Turks in the Battle of Khotyn (1621).[2] It was constructed according to design by Matteo Trapola between 1631 and 1635.[2] The interior was embellished with profuse early baroque stucco decorations by Giovanni Battista Falconi, frescoes by Mathäus Ingermann of Rome, 8 marble altars with oil paintings by Ingermann and probably by José de Ribera (the founder was a passionate collector of European art).[2] Between 1942 and 1944 the interior was devastated by the Germans and eventually the church had been demolished.[2]
