The Parish Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Racławice

 Racławice gmina: Jerzmanowice |
| The Parish Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Racławice dates from 1511. It is considered a late-gothic church and has come down to our times with little alteration, except for the addition of a spire during repairs at the turn of the C18th. The nave and chancel are covered by a polygonal shingled roof. Inside there are impressive gothic carpentry details from the period when the church was built. The walls are covered with renaissance polychrome decoration from the middle of the C17th, showing Passion and Marian scenes and images of the Saints. The most precious gothic relics among the fittings are the sculpture of Madonna with Child from the beginning of the C15th and a crucifix on the rood beam. |
