History
Gogolewo is a small village located on the Warta River, 4 km north of Książ Wielkopolski. It was first mentioned in documents in 1390 as the property of Paszek of the Doliwa coat of arms, called Gogolewski or Rozdrażewski, a cup-bearer of Kalisz, chamberlain and judge of Poznań. The estate remained in the hands of the Rozdrażewski family until the mid-17th century. Later it changed hands. In 1903, Gogolewo was purchased from Polish hands by Hermann von Kennemann from Klęka, one of the creators of Hakata. In the interwar period, it was the property of Antoni Szyfter, then Wiesław Kronobis.
The first church dedicated to St. John the Evangelist and St. Stanisław was built by Paszek Gogolewski in the late 14th century. The temple fell into ruin and was renovated many times. The current one was built after a fire in 1777. Two years after the fire, in 1779, another wooden church was built, which has survived to this day. In the 19th century, the church was renovated thanks to the efforts of local parish priests, including a small log porch in front of the southern entrance. In 1975, the shingles were replaced, in 1977 the foundation was removed and a new foundation strip was laid, in 2000 the truss of the nave, presbytery, and nave roof were renovated, and new formwork was laid.
