Divine Mercy Sanctuary (Vilnius) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sanctuary of the Divine Mercy, Vilnius
The Divine Mercy Sanctuary or the Holy Trinity Church in Vilnius, Lithuania ((リトアニア語:Vilniaus Dievo Gailestingumo šventovė)) is a Roman Catholic shrine dedicated to the Divine Mercy devotion, originated by Saint Faustina Kowalska. ==History==
On the site of the present church (Dominikonų St. 12) a Gothic single-nave church was built in the 15th century and named Holy Trinity Church. It was reconstructed after the 1748 and 1749 fires: a new presbytery and two towers were built on, and in a place of a Gothic apse a new portal was erected. The church belonged to the university; one of its deans was the university rector, Jesuit astronomer Martynas Počobutas. The tsarist authorities converted it into a Russian Orthodox church in 1821, but in 1920 it was returned to the Catholics. In Soviet times the church was abandoned. On Divine Mercy Sunday, 18 April 2004 under the care of Audrys Juozas Cardinal Bačkis, the church was restored, blessed, and given the title Shrine of Divine Mercy. The church was adapted for the worship of the original image of Divine Mercy, painted according to the vision of Saint Faustina Kowalska by artist Eugeniusz Kazimirowski in 1934. The Shrine is also decorated with two sgraffiti made by Nijolė Vilutytė: the Holy Mother of Mercy of the Gates of Dawn and the prayer “Jesus, I trust in you” in eleven languages.
