The search that found it though was for "carved rock catholic church" in a Google image search). This led me to: http://www.kopalnia.pl/site.php?action=galery&urlMain=2,185,1,1,,&&id_site=185&level=1 which verified the image and explained the location.) This was a tricky one - I got so caught up in the SALT meetings that I was searching for a church in Vienna, since you ruled out Helsinki (which also has a rock structure church with some similarities to this one).

The Wieliczka Salt Mine, located in the town of
Wieliczka in southern Poland, lies within the Kraków
metropolitan area. The mine had been in continuous
operation, producing table salt since the 13th century
until 2007 as one of the world's oldest operating salt
mines (the oldest being in Bochnia, Poland, some 20
kilometers away from Wieliczka). The mine is a
major tourist attraction, with about 1.2 million
visitors per year. Commercial mining was
discontinued in 1996 due to low salt prices and mine
flooding.
The Saint Kinga’s Chapel, on Lower Level II, 101
meters below the surface, is the most impressive and
opulent of underground temples. The chamber,

since 1896. The chapel ornamentation has been created over a period of more than a
hundred years. From late 19th century until 1963, the sculpting was conducted by
self-taught miners-sculptors, Józef and Tomasz Markowski and Antoni Wyrodek. Their
work is continued by the new generation of miners, who create new sculpting projects.
Sculptures which decorate the chapel walls are New Testament scenes. Closest to the
stairs, on the right, the Jesus Before Herod and Massacre of the Innocents reliefs are to
be seen, and above them, a Nativity scene. Slightly further, the Chapel of Madonna and
Child, with the depiction of God the Father atop, is to be seen, as well as the Flight Into
Egypt relief, and above it, Christ Falling Under the Cross.
Next to the main altar, a side altar dedicated to the Sacred Heart, the Twelve-year-old
Jesus Preaching At the Temple relief, and a pulpit whose base resembles the walls of the
hundred years. From late 19th century until 1963, the sculpting was conducted by

The chapel chancel is ornamented both by early 20th-century and recent sculptures.
One of the oldest elements of the décor is the main altar, carved by Józef Markowski
and consisting of three parts. In the middle, Saint Kinga’s figure surrounded by salt
crystals is placed; in the side panels, between double columns, the statues of Saint
Joseph and Saint Clement are to be seen.
To the left of the altar, a relief depicting the scene of the Last Supper, carved by Antoni
Wyrodek and modelled after the famous fresco by Leonardo da Vinci, is to be seen.
Next to the relief, the Resurrection Chapel is to be found. Another relief found here, the
Doubting Thomas, dates from the 1960s.

Kinga was given in marriage to Polish Prince Boleslaus V of Sandomierz of the Piast
Dynasty, later called the "Chaste". This political marriage was arranged when Kinga
was five and Boleslaus 12. In 1247 when Boleslaus was invited by the nobles of
Krakow to take over the Principality of Krakow, Kinga became princess. Despite the
marriage, the devout couple took up a vow of chastity. The marriage was largely
arranged by and the vow of chastity patterned after that of Boleslaw's sister Salome of
Cracow.In a county destroyed by the Tartars but still Christian, Kinga became a
benefactor, governing with her husband, jointly signing and sealing all documents.
During her reign Kinga got involved in charitable works such as visiting the poor and
helping the lepers. When her husband died in 1279, she renounced the throne and sold
all of her material possessions and gave the money to the poor. In 1280 she founded a
Poor Clare monastery on land given to her by Boleslaus at Stary Sacz. She lived as a
guest in the monastery for eight years, not entering it until 1288 and later becoming
Prioress. She spent the rest of her life in contemplative prayer and did not allow anyone

This was a great quiz for me because as soon as I looked at the photo, I knew I had
seen this place before. When I first started doing my own family genealogy (like you
are ever done!), I learned that my paternal 2nd Great-Grandmother's name was
Kunigunda Koelblein, a German immigrant from Bavaria.
Naturally, I thought that this was a somewhat unusual name. I thought how many
Kunigundas could there have been???? During my research of the name, I ran into this
photo while researching St. Kunigunda (Kinga), and learned about the Chapel. I also
learned that it was not an all that unusual name for Germanic people, Austrian,
Hungarian, & Western Poles. What a coincidence, that it's the topic of one of your
quizzes !!! Robert W. Steinmann, Jr.

One of the largest salt mines in the world, Sifto Co., is in Goderich Ontario, about an

allow any visitors. It’s kind of fun to imagine what the mine could become when it is

Hi Colleen! I did like this quiz - I think it was the hardest one for me to do so far! I
kept thinking it was an underground tunnel like the ones they have below Moscow in
the metro stations and I got hung up on that. The illuminated Virgin Mary statue was
what finally saved me; I Googled images of that and it led to me the Salt Mine. Very
interesting place and the legend is quite fascinating too! Thank you for the challenge

Alexander VIII confirmed her cult, the equivalent of

When Boleslaw and Kinga were to be married, Kinga's

him as a wedding present, what she would like to take to
her husband and the new country. Kinga replied that she
wanted no gold and jewels, since they only brought

serve the people she was going to live with. Her request surprised the king greatly –
she asked for salt.
The king was determined to keep his promise. He offered Kinga the biggest and most
prosperous salt deposits in Hungary – the Marmaros salt mine. However, nobody knew
what Kinga could do with the treasure.
On her way to Poland the princess visited the mine. She kneeled to pray next to the
entrance and – to everyone’s surprise – suddenly threw her engagement ring inside.
She gathered a group of the best Hungarian salt miners and told them to follow her.
When the party arrived in Poland and was approaching Kraków, Kinga stopped and
asked the miners to look for salt. They started digging and suddenly hit something very
hard. It was a lump of salt. When they broke it, everyone saw what was hidden inside

| When four prime ministers met here recently, they were not attending Strategic Arms Limitation Talks. 1. Where is this location? 2. What is unusual about it? 3. What is the nearest large city? Click here for hint |
The guests were welcomed at the entrance to the Mikołaj Daniłowicz Shaft by the
Chairman of the Board of the “Wieliczka” Salt Mine S.A., Kajetan d’Obyrn, the
Chairman of the Board of the “Wieliczka” Salt Mine Tourist Route, Marian Leśny,
Member of the Board for Technical Issues of the “Wieliczka” Salt Mine S.A., Dariusz
Wojciechowski, and Services Director of the “Wieliczka” Salt Mine Tourist Route,
Jarosław Malik.
The guests then took the elevator down into the mine to the II lower level, 101 meters
below ground level, and visited the Chapel of St. Kinga. The chapel, carved out in rock
salt, is one of the most beautiful historic places in the mine. The politicians were
amazed with its beauty and the enormous space cut out in rock salt. They also visited
the Erazm Barącz and Stanisław Staszic chambers.
The prime ministers symbolically shook hands in a gesture of unity. During dinner in
the Warszawa Chamber, 125 meters below ground level, the prime ministers
summarized the ending leadership of Poland in the Vyshehrad Group countries and
discussed the priorities under the leadership of Hungary. Amongst other aspects, the
prime ministers discussed the issues of energy safety, the nearing climate summit in
Copenhagen, and the engagement of the Vyshehrad Group countries in the Eastern
Partnership project.
The prime ministers then signed the Book of Guests. Prime Minister Donald Tusk
presented his guests with salt sculptures created by talented Wieliczka miners, coffee
table books and films on the historic undergrounds.
The underground meeting of the four prime minister took place as part of the
anniversary celebrating the first free elections held in Poland in 1989.
