Church of St Stanislaus the Bishop and Martyr in Kozielice

The Church of St Stanislaus the Bishop and Martyr in Kozielice is a late Gothic church from the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries, entered in the heritage register. It is run by the Christ Fathers.

Gothic transformed in the 19th century

On the west side the church has a wooden tower with a 17th-century Baroque helm. In the 19th century it underwent a thorough rebuilding, which blurred most of its original features, and the apse added at that time covered most of the Gothic east wall.

An interior with an organ from 1889

The interior is covered by a wooden beamed ceiling, and the decoration is Neo-Gothic in character. On the west wall stands a gallery with an organ case, which holds an organ by the Szczecin firm Grüneberg from 1889. The pulpit and 19th-century pews have also survived. The former furnishings, including a Baroque altar triptych from around 1700 and wall paintings of saints, were destroyed or lost. As a Catholic church it was consecrated on 21 August 1945.
