The church was built in the years 1844-1846. It was founded by a noblewoman, Salomea née Obiezierska, and her grandson, Wojciech Lipski. In the years 1898-1900, the polychromes in the presbytery, stucco wall coverings and a marble tabernacle were made (destroyed by the Germans during World War II and later rebuilt). In 1950, the church received three bells, and in the years 1949-1953 new plasters and electricity. In 1960 and 1976, it was repainted, and a thorough restoration was carried out in the years 1991-1992.
