The bell-tower in Zaborów
|
Zaborów Local government: Szczurowa |
The 1830 bell-tower in Zaborów,next to the church of the Blessed Virgin Mary, originally stood next to a wooden chapel erected in 1814, and later next to a wooden church built in 1835 (dismantled in 1950). The bell-tower is post construction and set on a stone foundation. It is tetrahedral in shape with perpendicular walls above which a bulbous octagonal cupola rises. The Parish Church in Zaborów was erected in 1949-51 on the site of the wooden church, from which items were transferred, including the cult “Zaborów” Madonna with Child”,” a bas relief of God the Father, and the figures of St. Peter and St. Paul. |
