Summary:The main purpose of the article is a detailed analysis of those Synod of Zamość definitions that directly or indirectly relate to the field of church architecture and interior design. Since this Ruthenian Uniate synod of 1720 set itself the task of unifying the Greek Catholic Liturgy with Catholic Mass, its resolutions also touched upon the issues of church decoration. The author also tries to determine the synodal decrees’ influence on the art practice, by analysing architecture and interior design of the churches built in 1720-1795.
