Summary/Abstract: The Church of the Dominican Friiars in Lublin was a time-honored tradition of the sejmik meeting for 260 years. The nobility gathered in it, thanks to the hospitality of monks, did not have to worry about their own rooms, nor did they have to bear the costs of their construction and maintenance. Instead of it, the hosts received little support for the renovation of the temple, and also no less important, the favor of the deliberate, who, while deciding the fate of the state, also took into account the interests of the Church.
