Lutheran church from 1844 within a cemetery. It's named for Elisabeth Ludovika (1801-73), wife of King Frederick William IV of Prussia. She was Catholic and declined to convert to Lutheranism on marrying him, saying she'd first study its merits. Seven years later she'd either done studying or deemed it politic, and converted.
Built in 1852, the oldest RC church in town, and enlarged in later years. The exterior has been scrubbed up nicely, the interior needs the same. But all of that requires money, and if the priest hikes the price of a funeral any more, even the folk lying in the cemetery behind will quit in protest.
A large theatre.
Kościół Marcina Lutra
The Protestant church was built from the 1890s in neo-Gothic style. The exterior is fairly plain but it's ornate within.
Kościół Św Wawrzyńca
This is where you want your wedding photos taken: it's a wooden church from 1599, formerly from Knurów village near Gliwice, moved to Chorzów in the 1930s.
