tect Bartholomew Berecci, at the order of the famous Bishop Peter Tomicki, who also put up a splendid mausoleum for himself there.
XI. Next follows old St. Mary's Chapel (also called the Sacristans', the Ciborium, or the Bathory Chapel); it was built in 1331. In the sixteenth century Queen Anne adorned it with a sepulchral monument to her husband Stephen Báthory (who, from a duke of Transsylvania, had become one of Poland's greatest kings, and died in 1586), a work of Santi Gucci, with marble stalls in Renascence style; a new decoration of black marble was added by Canon Adalbert Serebrzyski at the end of the seventeenth century.
XII. St. Catherine's (also called the Gamrat or Grochowski's) Chapel. In this a monument to Bishop Gamrat was erected, in 1545, at the expense of Queen Bona Sforza, by the sculptor Gian Maria Padovano. This chapel was later renovated by Canon George Grochowski (d. 1659), and in our own times, by the late bishop, Cardinal Puzyna.
XIII. Of the chapels to the north side, the oldest one is the present "vicars' vestry," adjoining the treasury, already mentioned; it was built of ashlars, in Gothic style, by Bishop Nanker in 1320, and dedicated to St. Margaret. Towards the end of the fifteenth century it was renovated, but the vaulting retained its original forms.
XIV. Next to this there is the Chapel of SS. Cosmas and Damian, or of the Zebrzydowski family. Founded as early as 1335, this was rebuilt, from the funds left by Bishop Andrew Zebrzydowski (d. 1560), as a sepulchral chapel, with monuments of himself and his family.
XV. The Chapel of St. Laurence was erected by Archdeacon Jaroslaw Bogoria Skotnicki in 1339, and thoroughly renovated by the scholar Stanislas Skarszewski (d. 1625).
XVI. Then follows the Chapel of SS. Matthew and Mathias, with the funeral monuments of the Lipski family. It was founded by Bishop Bodzanta, then rebuilt after the death of Bishop John Andrew Lipski, who had bequeathed a fund towards the erection
