This village has been connected with the cult of Saint Stanislaus, Bishop and Martyr, for over 350 years.

The village itself captivates tourists with the beauty of its surroundings, with sanctuary buildings blending into the view. Six monumental oaks, each of them several hundred years old, with the circumference of their trunks going up to 7.5 metres create an exceptional avenue, on which one may find a wooden chapel from the 17th century, commemorating the revelations of the saint. The avenue leads from an old wooden parish church, built with larch wood in 1768, to another chapel built on stilts on the Szum Stream, where there is a spring called “God’s Tear.”
