History[edit]
It was built in 1615 at the expense of the Lisiecki family.[2]
In 1716, it was rebuilt and acquired its current outline. It was dedicated in 1741 by Bishop Ordinarius of Kamianets-Podilskyi Wacław Hieronim Sierakowski. In 1748, the property situation of the parish improved thanks to donations from Rafał Skarbek and Adam Bielski.[3]
In 1935 the church was set on fire. The parishioners who were resettled to Poland took with them the miraculous image of the Mother of God of Chervonohorod.[3]
Today it is in a state of ruin.[3]
