Church in Roszczyce

The year 1659 arrived, and with it Count Reinhold von Krockow, the son of the starost of Darłowo, the mayor of the Lębork Land, and a delegate to the Sejm, built a small chapel with a crypt in Roszczyce. There are various opinions regarding its purpose. Some suggest that it was a private chapel of the Krockow family, as it was accessed through an underground passage from the palace. Others, however, believe that it was also meant to serve the residents of the nearby villages - Bargędzino and Nieznachowo. Count Krockow attached two hectares of land to the chapel, the income from which was to be used for its maintenance. Additionally, he established a salary for the pastor - the Krockows of Roszczyce were Lutherans - amounting to one hundred talers annually. It is known that by the end of the 17th century, this chapel was transformed into a church, where an Evangelical parish was established. Only after World War II, in 1952, did it become a Catholic church under the invocation of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Initially, it was a filial church of the parish in Białogard, and since 1972, it has been a filial church of the parish in Sarbsk.

Currently, the church under the invocation of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is oriented, single-naved, with a three-sided closure and a Baroque spire. It has preserved its Renaissance and Baroque furnishings from the 18th century. On the wall of the sanctuary, there is a magnificent epitaph commemorating the benefactors of the parish buried below in the crypt. Slightly younger, dating back "only" to the 19th century, is the Gruber family tombstone in the church cemetery.
