St Sigismund's Church, Szydlowiec

The church features a rectangular nave with a polygonal presbytery, constructed entirely from local sandstone with brick elements in the upper sections.

The original wooden structure from 1401 was replaced between 1493 and 1509 through the financial support of the Szydłowiecki noble family.

The interior preserves Renaissance altars, medieval polychromes by Stanisław Samostrzelnik, and Gothic portals connecting different sections of the building.

The church holds regular services at 7:00, 9:00, 10:30, 12:00, 16:00, and 18:00 on Sundays, with additional weekday masses throughout the year.

Two 17th-century sundials remain visible on the exterior walls, serving as historical timekeeping devices for the local population.
