A former Evangelical church in Drozdowo from the first half of the 19th century, with timber-framed walls, a Renaissance altar and a Baroque pulpit.
The Church of Christ the King in Drozdowo, by the road from Gorawino to Gościno, is today a Catholic filial church. Before 1945 it was an Evangelical church of a parish that also included the filial churches in Trzynik and Dębica. From 1494 the village belonged to the Manteuffel family.
Earlier the church and the parish came under the bishopric of Kamień. In 1828 and 1858 the parsonage burnt down. The present church was built in the first half of the 19th century, possibly in 1828. In 1925, 98.1 per cent of the villagers belonged to the Evangelical congregation. After 1945 the church was taken over by Catholics. In the area there is also the church in Trzynik.
The hall building on a rectangular plan has no separate chancel, and a sacristy was added to the side wall. The side and rear walls are timber-framed, and only the front façade is of brick. Inside are historic furnishings: a Renaissance altar and a Baroque pulpit. Next to the church stands a 19th-century bell tower.
