4a Tamka Street. The St. Theresa of the Infant Jesus church.
The church was consecrated on April 17, 1938.
During the siege of Warsaw in September 1939 the church was severly damaged. On the day just before the capitulation of Warsaw a bomb threw the church. The bomb hit above a huge altar, sticked the ceiling and exploded in the basement, and caused the damage of the whole building. In spite of that, during the whole occupation time Masses were offered inside the church.
After the war the reconstruction started and lasted till the year 1969.
On the church wall there are two plaques commemorating the fallen soldiers of III unit "Konrad".
