The larch wood shingled church was founded by the princely family of  Ossoliński. The church features unique architecture (e.g. arcades surrounding the building on three sides) as well as rich interior furnishings and polychrome decorations - the latter originally painted by  Vlastimil Hofman, a disciple of  Malczewski and Wyczółkowski, and later considerably altered.
