Neo-Gothic brick branch church in Kruszwin from the late 19th century, with a three-storey tower and stained glass in the chancel.
The Church of Saints Peter and Paul the Apostles in Kruszwin stands in the village in Myślibórz municipality. It was built in the late 19th century, and the heritage register dates it to the last quarter of the century. Today it is a branch church of the parish in Golenice.
The brick building on a rectangular plan has a chancel closed on five sides at the east end and a gabled roof of ceramic tiles. The windows are closed with semicircular arches. On the west side a three-storey tower on a square plan was added, with a pointed spire topped with a ball with a cross. A wooden ceiling is stretched over the interior, and on the west wall stands a choir gallery supported on posts. 19th-century pews have survived, and the chancel windows hold stained glass with scenes of the Nativity, the Crucifixion and the Resurrection.
Until 1945 it was a Protestant church. It was consecrated as a Catholic church on 21 April 1957. From Kruszwin it is close to Myślibórz, where you can look in at the Collegiate Church of St John the Baptist.
