Chapel in the ruined church in Cieszyn

The church in Cieszyn in Biesiekierz municipality is a medieval church from which the tower has been rebuilt, today serving as a chapel of the parish of Christ the King in Biesiekierz. The site is entered in the heritage register.

History

Wikipedia states that the church was built in the 14th century and restored in the 19th century. The heritage register describes it as Gothic, of brick, and dates it to the 16th century. The ruins of the former church were handed over to the parish in Biesiekierz on 13 December 1973. Since then only the tower has been rebuilt, and a chapel has been set up in it.

The condition of the nave body is best checked with the parish before a visit.
