About the church
Fara Żarska is one of the most important monuments of Żary — a place where history, faith and culture have met for centuries. Its architecture, preserved details and turbulent past recall the successive generations who created and rebuilt this exceptional place.
Today the Fara remains a space of prayer, remembrance and discovering the town’s heritage.
