Catholic Church of St. Jadwiga of Silesia from 1807, a temple built in the classicist style. In 1984, a brick bell tower was built, which in style matches the body of the church. In the interior design of the temple, the main altar with a figure of the patron saint from 1947 and two classicist side altars with paintings: Our Lady of Częstochowa and the Transfiguration of the Lord are worthy of attention. Also worthy of attention are the ceiling plafonds, depicting St. Maximilian, Christ and a symbolic vision of the election of John Paul II to the apostolic see. These plafonds date back to the early eighties of the last century.
