how to get there

The chancel and part of the nave were built in the 1600s. The alterations and reconstruction carried out in 1841 changed the appearance of the church completely. Those resettled from here in the 1940s took some of the church furnishings to their new homeland.

 

The nave is covered with wood board ceiling with a cove. In the remaining parts there are flat ceilings also clad with wood boards. The walls and ceilings feature polychrome decorations painted by Paweł Bogdański in 1898. The frieze on the chancel ceiling was contributed in 1933 by Paweł Zaporiżski.
