Church of St. Mary in Lubiąż

The Church of St. Mary is a brick structure with two prominent towers topped with baroque domes. The interior follows a Latin cross layout with three naves, a three-span choir, and preserved altar tables along with sculpture fragments.

Construction of the original monastery church began in the 13th century and was later modified with gothic elements. Its final baroque form was completed between the 17th and 18th centuries.

The church functions as a museum and mausoleum for notable figures from Silesia. Visitors can see the burial places of Piast dynasty members who found their final resting place here.

Daytime visits work best for viewing the facades and interior details fully. The church is open as a museum, though visiting hours can vary seasonally.

A princely chapel added in the early 14th century originally housed the tomb of a local duke from the region. During the 20th century the building sustained damage that was later partially restored.
