Maciej Trapola

Maciej Trapola was an Italian architect working primarily in Poland in the early 17th century.

Most, if not all of Trapola's structures were built in the Polish town of Nowy Wisnicz for then owner Stanislaw Lubomirski.

The Nowy Wisnicz castle continues to sit proudly atop the hill overlooking the small town and featured the fortifications that were added by Trapola around 1615–1621.

Another example of Trapola's work in Nowy Wisnicz is the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church.

The plaque was added by Professor Czesław Dźwigaj, and it reads "In this house from 1622 to death in 1637 lived and created Maciej Trapola an outstanding Italian architect, builder of the castle, parish church, town hall and Carmelite monastery, author of the first measurements and urban-spatial assumptions of the city of Nowy Wiśnicz.
