Brief Description
"The Churches of Peace in Jawor and Swidnica, the largest timber-framed religious buildings in Europe, were built in the former Silesia in the mid-17th century, amid the religious strife that followed the Peace of Westphalia. Constrained by the physical and political conditions, the Churches of Peace bear testimony to the quest for religious freedom and are a rare expression of Lutheran ideology in an idiom generally associated with the Catholic Church."
扎沃尔和思维得尼加的和平教堂
"扎沃尔和思维得尼加的和平教堂是欧洲最大的 木制结构宗教建筑，始建于17世纪中期的原西里西亚，当时正值威斯特伐利亚和平条约签订之后宗教运动兴起之时。由于受到物质和政治上的压制，和平教堂宣布 接受人们对于宗教自由的要求，表达了路德教派的思想，这在当时以天主教为主的地区是很少见的。"
