Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Brojce

The Gothic church of the 15th century in Brojce has an interior with a wooden beam ceiling, light walls in which fieldstones can be seen in places, a baroque altar of the 18th century and a Renaissance font of around 1630.

Altar, font, organ

The baroque high altar was made in the 18th century as a pulpit altar. It originally had a triangular canopy projecting forward and a pulpit body in the middle part. After 1978 it was rebuilt, and today it has neither pulpit nor canopy. In the centre hangs a painting of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, beneath it stands the tabernacle, and the altar is decorated with gilded acanthus ornament and putti.

The Renaissance font was funded around 1630 by the von Manteuffel family. On the choir is a gallery with a 19th-century organ case and a balustrade with twisted colonnettes, and the six-stop organ was made in 1910 by the Grüneberg firm of Szczecin. The church was blessed on 1 July 1945. The parish was established in 1947 and is run by the Christ Fathers (Chrystusowcy).
