A Baroque half-timbered church from 1787 with the founder's inscription on a lintel beam and a tower with a Baroque spire.
The Church of St Anne in Ginawa was built in 1787 in the half-timbered technique. The heritage register classes it as Baroque. It is a branch of the parish in Storkowo, and formerly a Protestant church.
On the lintel beam survives a Latin and German inscription dated 1 October 1787, commemorating the founder, F. W. von Hertzberg. The building is single-nave, closed on three sides by an apse, and at the entrance stands a porch with a portal. The church was renovated in 1868-1869.
On the west side a tower with a Baroque spire partly forms part of the building. It was originally wooden, and in 2009 it was replaced with a brick one during renovation.
Above the entrance hangs a wooden gallery supported on five posts, and the windows are rectangular. After the Second World War the church was consecrated as a Catholic church on 6 January 1949.
