Sacred Heart chapel in Zakopane Jaszczurówka, Wooden church in Zakopane, Poland
The Sacred Heart Chapel stands on a stone foundation with arcade-style porches and features traditional wooden shingle roofing with a small bell tower.
The chapel, designed by architect Stanisław Witkiewicz and funded by the Uznański family, opened its doors to worshippers in 1907 after three years of construction.
The interior displays wooden altars styled after highland cottages, along with stained glass windows depicting Our Lady of Częstochowa and the Gate of Dawn Madonna.
Located along Oswald Balzer Road leading to Morskie Oko, the chapel serves as an active religious site under the care of Marian priests from Toporowa Cyrla.
The building, registered as a Polish cultural heritage site, represents the Zakopane architectural style with its visible log construction and highland design elements.
