A late Gothic hall church from the late 15th century, with blind arcading on the gable, a sacrarium in the chancel and two bells from 1488 and 1606.
The Church of St Joseph the Worker in Strzebielewo, in Dolice municipality, is a late Gothic branch church of the parish of the Annunciation of the Lord in Witkowo. It was built in the late 15th century of stone and brick, as a hall church without a tower. It is entered in the heritage register, which dates it to the 16th century.
The east gable is decorated with pointed blind arcading and round niches, and is topped with pinnacles. The windows have a rectangular shape with surrounds, which is unusual for Gothic. The west gable is of stone, and in this elevation there is a pointed portal with two recessed orders. A second portal, in a pointed recess, leads in from the south. A modern sacristy was added to the north wall.
On the west side the interior is closed by a wooden music gallery. An 18th-century altar has survived, originally a pulpit altar, and in the chancel there is a sacrarium niche with a small door painted in tempera. In the churchyard bell tower hang two bronze bells from 1488 and 1606. In 1992 new doors and pews were installed and the ceiling was replaced. After the war the church was consecrated as a Catholic one in 1948.
