Our Lady of the Angels church in Lipsk

Our Lady of the Angels church in Lipsk, Catholic parish church in Lipsk, Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland

Our Lady of the Angels church in Lipsk is a brick building constructed in the Gothic Revival style, displaying pointed arches and soaring vertical lines. The structure showcases the decorative details typical of this architectural movement through its masonry construction.

The present church was built after Tsar Nicholas II's edict of toleration and amnesty for religious beliefs in June 1905. Permission to reactivate the parish and build a new church came in 1906, when Father Stanisław Zalewski began construction with help from Lipsk residents and nearby villagers. Father Piotr Kotlewski completed the building in 1914, and it was consecrated on 2 August 1914. Damaged in 1915 during World War I, it was rebuilt by 1923.

The church is dedicated to Our Lady of the Angels, and its side altars honour the Sacred Heart of Jesus (left nave) and Our Lady of the Basilian with a 16th-century miraculous image (right nave). A plaque on one wall records the 155 wall damages, 16 shells that passed through, the destroyed roof and all broken windows suffered in 1915.

The church stands in Lipsk, in the Podlaskie Voivodeship, within the Diocese of Ełk's Lipsk deanery. A plaque set into one wall records the 1915 damage: 155 hits in the masonry, 16 shells that passed clean through, a destroyed roof and every window broken. Look for it when visiting.

A plaque set into one wall records the damage of 1915: 155 breaches in the masonry, 16 shells that passed clean through, a destroyed roof and every window broken. The church was rebuilt by 1923, and the plaque remains for visitors to find.
