The first wooden church of the Holy Cross was founded around 1350 by the metropolitan archbishop of Gniezno, Jarosław Bogoria Skotnicki. In the second half of the 14th century, a parish was established next to it.

The construction of the church, which serves the faithful to this day, began in 1865 thanks to the efforts of the then parish priest, Fr. Józef Marmo, and was finally completed in 1870. It was built of brick and field stone. In 1930, under the supervision of Fr. Józef Kostrzewski, the church was expanded, which took on the shape of a cross: a presbytery, two chapels and two sacristies were added. It was consecrated by the metropolitan archbishop of Gniezno and Warsaw, Stefan Cardinal Wyszyński, the primate of Poland, in 1967. The church is maintained in the Vistula Gothic style, and has four altars. The main altar, in the neo-Gothic style, wall-mounted, three-axis, with two niches on the sides. In its center is a Baroque crucifix. In the side altar there is a painting of Our Lady of the Scapular from 1794, with dresses in the Regency style, and two Rococo sculptures: St. Adalbert and St. Stanislaus. The second side altar is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of the Lord Jesus. Opposite is an altar with an image of St. Roch. The organs in the temple are modern. The pulpit from the first half of the 20th century is worthy of attention.
