Blessed Kinga Chapel

A finest example of an underground church, Blessed Kinga Chapel is located in the Bochnia salt mine in Poland that happens to be the oldest of its kind. Blessed Kinga Chapel is situated at Wazyn Chamber in the mine and is a construction totally done with salt. Established in 1747, this church consists pulpit sculpted in salt, different salt figures and even some salt altars.

It is amazing to think of a church made in the heart of a salt mine that was active for more than 750 years. However, the mine is now basically used as a tourist spot as salt extraction has been lessened. Very interesting and a must see!
