The period between the 16th and the 17th century was a crucial time for Lublin. The great fire of 1575 left the city in urgent need of rebuilding, while the counter-reformation movements led to an influx of Italian masons. Reconstructed and restored sacral buildings were given a set of common architectural features: a slender shape, single nave, chancel narrower than the nave and ending in a semicircular apse, façade without towers, stucco-decorated barrel vault with lunettes, decorative gable, strapwork and plastered walls. This distinct consistent architectural style of sacral buildings erected in the Lublin Region in the first half of the 17th century was first recognised in scientific literature by Władysław Tatarkiewicz. The term “Lublin Renaissance” was disseminated in art history in the mid-20th century.
