A half-timbered church from 1777 without a tower, with a bell tower holding a 16th-century bell, and candlesticks from 1617.
The Church of Our Lady of Częstochowa in Karwowo was built in 1777 in half-timbered construction. It is a former Protestant church, today a branch of the parish of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Łobez.
The church is single-nave, without a tower, on a rectangular plan, with a chancel closed on three sides at the east end. The roof over the nave is a gable roof, over the chancel a three-pitch roof. The portal is in the west wall, flanked by two rectangular windows, and the other walls have pointed-arch windows. Beside it stands a freestanding bell tower with a bell from the 16th century. About 2.7 km further on stands the Neo-Gothic church in Karnice.
The ceiling is wooden and beamed, and a choir balustrade runs above the entrance. Of the furnishings, two candlesticks from 1617, a 17th-century candelabrum and a 19th-century crucifix have survived. After the Second World War the church was consecrated as a Catholic church in 1946.
