The church was destroyed many times, especially during the Warsaw Uprising in 1944, erstwhile it almost completely demolished. After the war, it was carefully rebuilt and reconstructed in historical form. The temple contains urns with the hearts of prominent Poles, including Frederick Chopin and Władysław Reymont. A characteristic part of the facade is the figure of Christ carrying a cross with the inscription “Sursum Corda”.
