St. Matthew's Church
St. Matthew's Church is one of the oldest churches in Starogard Gdański. It was built in the 14th century when Teodot of Florence founded the town. It is said that the church was built on the site of a pagan temple dedicated to Swarog, and its stone font was made from a huge statue of this Slavic god. In 2009, to celebrate the 800th anniversary of Starogard, the church underwent a comprehensive restoration. The roof was renewed, the walls were repaired, and the interior of the church was restored.
