Parish church and Franciscan monastery from the 13th century.
When the Duchy of Silesia was divided, Löwenberg passed to the Duchy of Legnica in 1248, which was established for Henry I's son, Boleslaw II. A ducal castle in Löwenberg has been proven for this year, as well as the Franciscan monastery, which belonged to the Saxon Order Province (Saxonia). From 1281 to 1286 Löwenberg was the seat of Duke Bernhard I, the ruler of the Duchy of Löwenberg. In 1281 he handed over the parish church to the Johanniter, who also looked after the hospitals outside the walls.
