Church of Christ the King in Wyszomierz

The Church of Christ the King stands in Wyszomierz in Nowogard municipality and is a branch church of the parish of St Anne in Długołęka (the Church of St Anne in Długołęka). It was built in the 15th century on a rectangular plan of erratic boulders. It is entered in the heritage register.

Architecture

The gable of the east wall is of brick and decorated with blind arcading. In the 18th century a wooden, boarded tower with a sharp spire covered with sheet metal was added on the west side. A renovation in 1903 included, among other things, widening the windows. Inside, above the entrance, is a 19th-century choir gallery, but no historic furnishings have survived. In front of the church lies the bowl of a Romanesque font.
