Is a Neo-Gothic Roman Catholic temple, built in 1890, originally serving the Mennonite community. It is a filial church of the St. Michael the Archangel parish in Zwierzno. The church was constructed after the 1888 flood, which destroyed the Mennonite prayer house in nearby Markusy. The building has a rectangular plan, with a single nave interior and a small chancel. A distinctive feature of the structure is the turret at the top, along with pinnacles decorating the corners. Next to the church stands a brick belfry. The church is accompanied by a Mennonite-Evangelical cemetery, surrounded by greenery and lined with lime tree alleys. Fragments of steles and gravestones have been preserved there.
