What does the church reveal about the village’s architectural history?

The Church of NMP Królowej Polski offers a concrete insight into the village’s architectural history. The walls of its chancel date from the second half of the 14th century. The building was remodelled in 1684 and is a Gothic-Baroque brick church. It faces east, and its tower is made of wood and clad in boards.

The furnishings provide another historical point of reference: the church has a wooden Baroque musicians’ gallery dating from 1782. Its balustrade consists of panels and rests on two chamfered posts. The chancel walls, remodelling and gallery belong to different periods.

What is included in the protected historic village setting?

The conservation zone for the rural settlement layout protects, preserves and maintains the historically designed greenery. Thus, in addition to the church, the designed greenery is also a feature of the historic village setting.

Another element is the Catholic parish cemetery, formerly a Protestant cemetery. The historic alignment of the avenues and the existing division into burial plots are protected there. These features describe the cemetery layout: in addition to the burial plots, the course and arrangement of the avenues are part of its protected historic design.

The older history of the village also includes an open settlement in Lublewo Gdanskie, dated to the Early Iron Age. This provides a separate point of reference alongside the church’s medieval architectural history and the later features of its remodelling and furnishings.
