This Roman Catholic Church opened in 1963 and primarily serves members of the Polish community. It has an onion-domed turret at the east end of the pantiled roof. The church is dedicated to Our Lady of Ostra Brama, a famous painting of the Virgin Mary located in the Chapel of the Gate of Dawn in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. For about 200 years that country was in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the painting dates from that period. Image Image
