Point of interest - Győr - Church of St. Kamillus
The "Society of Servants of the Sick and Dying", founded by St. Kamill, served in the Győr hospital from 1761. The blessed activity of the Camillian Fathers was ended by Joseph II's decree dissolving the monastic orders. Their church, built in Nádorváros, has been preserved, with the coat of arms of the order on its façade.
The altarpiece filling the back wall of the sanctuary has 15 gilded wooden sculptures. The central figures of the group are the Virgin Mary clothed in the sun at the top, and St Stephen and King Laszlo on either side. The main altarpiece, depicting the divine experience of St. Camillus, was painted in 1780 by Antonio Capacci of Florence. The nave is decorated with four side altars. The relief of the pulpit-melodeon is related to the movement of the statue on the soundpost: Moses, lifting the tablets of the Ten Commandments, is about to throw them into the midst of the people who are about to worship the golden calf. An exact copy of Jesus' burial shroud, preserved in Turin, is on display in the parish church.
