    The chapel in Podchełm was built in 1934 by the Dziedziak brothers (reverend Ignacy and father Bernardyn). A wooden church covered with sheet metal, with a tower in the highland style, surrounded by a beautiful highland fence covered with shingles, surrounded by old lime trees - at the foot of the Chełm mountain.

    It was built with the help of the inhabitants of Podchełm at the junction of three parishes: Grybów, Kąclowa, Ropa. Two brother priests built it for their elderly parents, who, due to their old age and great distance from the parish church, could no longer come to Grybów.

    During the last war, Podchełmie was an area of activity for partisans, and they often came to this church for Holy Mass, which is why the Germans called it "Banditen Kirche - bandit church". To commemorate, in 1984, a beautiful monument was erected next to the church, erected in honor of the inhabitants of the Grybów region murdered during the last war.

    On the dais there is a large granite block with a cross on it, an eagle leaping up
