This brick Gothic church, situated on a hill, dates back to the 15th
century. Its oldest piece is a wooden cross affixed to a triumphal arch.
The eight-sided pulpit with its star-shaped ceiling was built in 1598.
The baptismal angel, created during the Baroque era, was recently
restored. The altar screen (early 19th century) contains a copy of the
Madonna painting by Correggio. The organ, which was manufactured in
Szczecin in 1909, was restored in 2001.
