Summary/Abstract: The turn of the 19th century throughout Polish territories was the period of an intense search for 'native' architectural forms. One of the most popular stylistic creations of the time in the Congress Kingdom of Poland was the so-called Vistula-Baltic style. It was the output of Józef Pius Dziekoński that substantially contributed to popularizing it. Thanks to him, a number of localities of the Kingdom were adorned with the silhouettes of those 'Gothic', 'as if lace-knitted' churches. One of them was the Church of the Protection of Our Lady designed for Radom. The present paper depicts the impact the Gothic Revival church's emergence within Radom's space had on the oeuvre of the local architects who by using the stylistic forms popularized by Dziekoński introduced them permanently into the architectural panorama of the city.
