Neogothic church in Janowice

The pride of the town is the centrally located neo-Gothic church built in 1882, which boasts a rich history. This church replaced an earlier temple, from which some elements of decoration originate, such as baroque altars and baptismal font. The first mention of the church in Janowice dates back to 1400 when it belonged to smaller parish systems, paying half a mark annually to the bishop of Włocławek. In 1569, the church was Catholic, but it was soon probably taken over by the Lutherans, as its patrons, the Janowicz family, also converted to Lutheranism. For many years, the church served as a branch of the parish in Garczegorz, but in 1784, it again became an independent mother church. In 1961, part of the church's historic furnishings was moved to Wierzchucin. The building's structure consists of a four-bay nave articulated with flat pilasters, and a partially embedded square-plan tower from the west. The church windows are adorned with stained glass featuring geometric motifs.
