Church of the Assumption in Uchanie

Church of the Assumption in Uchanie, Brick church in Uchanie, Poland.

The Church of the Assumption in Uchanie is a single-nave brick church with a narrower, elongated presbytery closed on three sides. Its facade is topped by a tall gable with small turrets at the corners, and the vault carries stucco decoration with winged angel heads and the Herbut, Korab, Radwan and Topór coats of arms. Inside stands the richly decorated tomb of Paweł and Anna Uchańscy, made at the end of the 16th century in Santi Gucci's workshop.

A late-Gothic church built in 1482–1484 and funded by Paweł Jasieński, castellan of Sandomierz, it was destroyed around the mid-16th century. Jakub Uchański, primate of Poland, funded its 1575 reconstruction in the Lublin Renaissance style. In the first quarter of the 17th century Mikołaj Daniłłowicz rebuilt and enlarged it, adding the nave and chapels; stucco work followed after 1625. It was restored after damage in 1655 and consecrated in 1693.

The church lies on the Lublin Renaissance Route, and its interior holds a late-16th-century tomb of Paweł and Anna Uchański from the workshop of Santi Gucci. Ewaryst Andrzej Kuropatnicki, writing in 1786, noted the Swedish marble floor, the marble altar and the tin, marble and alabaster coffins in the crypt, which he said anyone could enter because it was well lit.

The church stands on the Lubelskie Renaissance Route, so it is worth pairing with other stops on that trail. The interior is entered through the west portico; the Uchański tomb and the stucco vault are the elements to look for inside. Opening depends on parish use, so confirm times before travelling.

Inside, the tomb of Paweł and Anna Uchański, carved at the end of the 16th century in Santi Gucci's workshop, is easy to miss among the furnishings. The church vault carries stucco decoration with winged angel heads and the Herbut, Korab, Radwan and Topór coats of arms. A 1786 geography by Count Ewaryst Andrzej Kuropatnicki noted the Swedish marble floor and tin, marble and alabaster coffins in the visible crypt.
