Church of Our Lady of the Rosary in Rzeplino

The Church of Our Lady of the Rosary in Rzeplino, in Dolice municipality, was built of stone in the second half of the 15th century. It is entered in the heritage register. It is a hall building on a rectangular plan, heavily altered in the following centuries.

Alterations

In the 18th century the church was rebuilt, and of its original character only the pointed-arch portal and the east gable decorated with blind arches have survived. A tower adjoins it to the west, which in the 19th century was topped with an octagonal drum with a pointed spire.

The patron’s gallery

By the south wall stands an 18th-century annexe. Its upper storey holds a patron’s gallery, endowed by the owner of the village Leopold von Wedel and his wife Anna von Brockhausen. The interior is covered with a decorated panelled ceiling of the 18th century. After the war, in October 1947, the church was consecrated as a Catholic church.
