The Parish Church of St. Andrew in Graboszyce
|
Graboszyce gmina: Zator |
The Parish Church of St. Andrew in Graboszyce was built in 1585 to replace an older church. It uses log construction and is covered by a gable roof with a ridge of variable height. In 1617 a bell house tower was added to the west and then elevated a storey and topped with a spherical dome in the C18th. Unusual features of the church are the tiered sacristy along the north wall of the chancel and the C17-18th baroque fittings which include a crucifix on the rood arch, a main altar with paintings of Madonna with Child and St Andrew and a winged altar-piece with the paintings Ecce Homo and Our Lady of Sorrows from the C16th. |
