Church of St Aloysius Gonzaga in Stare Resko

The Church of St Aloysius Gonzaga in Stare Resko is a historic church from the 18th century, formerly Protestant, now Roman Catholic. It stands in Połczyn-Zdrój municipality and has been in the heritage register since 1983.

The building

The heritage register gives Fachwerk as the building technique, that is a timber-frame construction filled with brick, and dates the church to the 18th century. Next to the church a churchyard cemetery has survived, entered together with it among the monuments, and nearby is a manor complex with a manor house, a park and farm buildings.
