Mindaugas's Comments

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Anne%27s_Church%2C_Vilnius

St. Ann Churc in Vilnius, Lithuania

It was built using 33 different kinds of clay bricks. (picture illustrates this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Annes_Church_Facade.jpg)

There is a well-known legend that Emperor Napoleon, after seeing the church during the course of the Franco-Russian War in 1812, expressed a wish to carry the church home with him to Paris 'in the palm of his hand'. In reality, however, he gave it to his cavalry instead.
