St. Stanislaus Kostka’s Church in Rodowo

The village and the church were destroyed during the “hunger” war. The village suffered the raids of the unpaid mercenary soldiers on the 20 January 1455: “they damaged the houses, abused the people and took over the property, which they burned down the next day”. St. Stanislaus Kostka’s Church, built in 1754, covered with a pitched roof, a square tower erected in 1859, topped with a tented roof is an oriented Baroque church built on a rectangular plan, made of brick, plastered, single-nave, with its eastern wall bent elliptically.

In the porch there is a Baroque foundation plaque. The oak by the church is around 300 years old.
