Churches and monasteries in Mechowo: three historic churches in three villages of the same name, in Kamień and Gryfice counties and Pyrzyce municipality.

Several villages bear the name Mechowo, so three quite different places meet here: a Gothic church with a wooden tower, a stone church dated to about 1500 and a brick church with a mirror vault. Check the county before you set out.

Which church in Mechowo is in Kamień County?

Kościół Niepokalanego Poczęcia NMP w Mechowie (Immaculate Conception church) lies in Golczewo municipality and most likely goes back to the late 1400s. It stands on a small moraine rise sloping towards the Wołcza river and is in the register of monuments. A wooden tower was added in 1647. Inside you will see an altar from the early 1700s and stained glass bearing family arms.

Where is the Mechowo with the stone church, and where the one with the brick church?

Kościół św. Andrzeja Boboli w Mechowie (powiat gryficki) (Church of St Andrew Bobola) was built of fieldstone around the year 1500. It has a single nave, a wooden upper part of the tower and a Baroque altar and pulpit.

Kościół św. Michała Archanioła w Mechowie (gmina Pyrzyce) (Church of St Michael the Archangel) is a 14th-century brick church, a branch of the parish in Brzesko. It has a mirror vault from 1738, a pulpit from 1604 and tomb slabs. The tower was added in 1738-1739.
