When visiting Blizne and the historic wooden church of All Saints, it is worth following the Way of the Cross to St. Hill. Michał - called Michałek by the inhabitants, where a brick chapel is located among old larches. The chapel was built in 1877 by priest Józef Januszkiewicz on the site of the former church and monastery of Fathers. Capuchins, which were sold and demolished in 1788. This place and the intention to build the chapel are connected with a legend about gratitude to Saint. Michael for miraculously saving the lives of the local population during the Tatar invasion in 1624. The current chapel is the second building erected for this purpose; the original chapel was wooden and was probably built by Fr. Józef Nałogowski, then parish priest of the local parish.
