Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Tuczno

The Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Tuczno was built in the late Gothic style in 1522, but was rebuilt many times afterwards. It is a three-nave hall church with a Baroque tower of 1670, standing right next to the castle.

Architecture

The tower ends in a narrow, onion-shaped spire with a ridge turret. Inside there are star and rib vaults, supported by massive pillars.

Furnishings

The furnishings date from the 17th and 18th centuries. They include Baroque altars, with the painting The Coronation of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the main one, and in the side aisle a wooden Pietà from the early 16th century. The organ from the mid-17th century, the pulpit and the font are also Baroque. Two bells date from 1923 and one from 1911.
