    "Na Wodzie" Chapel - a chapel in the village of Ojców in the Ojców National Park, at the foot of rocks called Prałatki. It is a historic wooden sacred building dedicated to Saint Józef the Robotnik.
    It was erected in 1901 on the site of the former Goplana spa baths. It was erected on concrete foundations straddling two banks of the Prądnik stream. According to the legend, the unusual location of the building resulted from the circumvention of the tsarist ban on building on the paternal land, so a water chapel was built.

      The chapel was built in 1901. It was built on concrete foundations that stretch over two banks of the Prądnik Stream. According to legend, the unusual location of the building resulted from circumventing the tsarist building ban on his father's land, which is why a water chapel was built.

        I advise you not to park near the church. Sometimes there are ;) police there.
