a Roman Catholic chapel under the peak of Kocurowa Góra (also called Mount Jasień) in Sucha Beskidzka. It is located at an altitude of approximately 500 m above sea level. on the southeastern ridge of the mountain.
The small chapel is a brick building combining the features of Renaissance architecture with Gothic and Classicist elements. Built of local broken sandstone on a rectangular plan with dimensions of 6x4 m, single-nave with a small vestibule, it has a stone tower in the façade axis with a wooden, six-sided bell tower with a spherical dome, 12 m high. Inside, in the altar, a copy of the painting of Our Lady of Częstochowa[2] .

It was built in 1773 to commemorate the skirmish between the Confederate troops and the Russian troops of General Suvorov during the Bar Confederation in 1771. According to tradition, approximately 200 Confederate soldiers died there, and Maurycy Beniowski was captured by the Russians. Next to the chapel there is a symbolic grave of fallen Confederates with a cross.

In the 1980s, the chapel was a place of independence demonstrations of the local society. Currently, every year on May 3, the feast of Our Lady Queen of Poland, and August 15, the feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, masses are celebrated in the chapel. for the homeland.

A marked educational and nature trail leads from the Castle in Sucha Beskidzka to the chapel. There is also another access - a white-and-blue marked walking path from the Błądzonka estate in the Suski estate in the valley of the stream of the same name
