Warsaw - St. John's Cathedral Warsaw picture - Some of the bitterest fighting of the 1944 Warsaw Uprising happened here. German tanks entered the church after destroying its southern side. So much was destroyed during the war that bits and pieces from all over the country have been used in refurnishing of the important churches giving them the feeling of an ecclesiastical storehouse rather than an expression of unity of design.
