Church of St Stanislaus the Bishop and Martyr in Wolin

The Church of St Stanislaus the Bishop and Martyr in Wolin is a neo-Gothic brick church, built in 1848 as an Old Lutheran church. It stands at Kościelna 19. Its patron is Stanislaus of Szczepanów.

The building and interior

The church has a rectangular plan with a chancel closed on three sides. The roof is gabled and tiled, and from its ridge rises a small bell turret with an octagonal spire. Inside is a wooden, boarded beamed ceiling. On the west, above the entrance, stands a choir gallery supported on four pillars, and on it a working organ of seven stops with mechanical action from the mid-19th century. In the chancel, between the windows, hangs a painting of the patron, and by the altar stands a font with a wooden cover.

The fortunes of the church

The church was consecrated on 22 December 1946. In 1951-2000 it was the parish church of the parish of St Stanislaus in Wolin, and today it is a branch church. The church lies near the Collegiate Church of St Nicholas and the open-air museum in Wolin, both less than half a kilometre away.
