Salvete Omnes,
Stanislaw Zolkiewski, Polish Crown grand hetman, inherited the sizable estates from his father, also Stanislaw.
 |
| no Zolkiew images from the 1600s, but this is Karol Auer print from 1838 |
During his career as a statesman and solider he augmented his wealth and holding, including founding a town of Zolkiew (by the will of Stalin and Khrushchev in today's Ukraine as Zhovkva).
 |
Collegiate Church of St. Lawrence - the Zolkiewskis family sepulcher    |
The interior of this splendorous church also originally contained two monumental paintings - battle of Klushino 1610 by Szymon Boguszowicz, and Battle of Khotyn 1673 by Altomonte.
