The parish church, which "in the Gothic style, [was] built by Jakub Poczta, castellan of Ciechanów, in 1398. The legend says that Jakub Poczta, hunting in the place where the present church is, killed a deer and found a cross fused from horn bone between the antlers and in memory built at first a statue, later a chapel and a church. These antlers still hang in the church and are exceptionally large [Currently, there are no antlers in the church, because they burned down in 1915 during a church fire]. The church is now in good condition, brick and large, renovated in 1856, stands on a hill opposite the palace and windmill, also built on the mountains. Since all three mountains stand in one line, they assume that they were artificially built. parafiaczerniceborowe.pl/historia

Parish church brick, late Gothic, one nave with a straight closed presbytery; erected after 1514. A characteristic example of Mazovian late Gothic.
