Jesuit Church, Warsaw, Poland
Warsaw is a great city to visit.  It is super clean, well groomed, and has an extremely interesting old city at its heart.  I wasn't sure what to expect when beforehand, but any expectations were exceeded.  Go here if you get a chance.  It's an uncrowded slice of old Europe mixed in with modern amenities

The Our Lady of Mercy Jesuit Church was build originally between 1609 and 1629.  It was rebuilt after World War II, when the Nazi's completely annihilated Old Town, the beautiful core of the city, in revenge for the Warsaw uprising.  It is a testament to the tenacity of the Polish people that it was restored, brick by brick, and at least my untrained and unbelieving eyes could not tell they had ever been harmed.
