History

It stood next to the town wall. It was built by the Franciscans (Minorites) at the beginning of the 14th century. Later it became the property of the Jesuits. The monastery is as old as the church and was built in Gothic style. The building of the Catholic Grammar School stands next to it. The Polish Gate of the town is also in its neighborhood.
