    Rowe is said to have received its own church as early as 1581 and was mentioned during a church visitation in 1590. Later, a new half-timbered building was built, probably in 1750. This church stood on a hill high above Lake Garda. It had a tower, which, however, had to be demolished due to the threat of collapse, as a visitation protocol from 1816 states. As a replacement, a free-standing belfry was built next to the church. The current church was built in 1843 as a new building. It contains numerous older and valuable furnishings. At the end of the 19th century, two bells were suspended in the free-standing belfry: a medieval one without inscription and one with a long inscription and a large coat of arms, which had been cast in 1660. [2]

    For more than a hundred years, this church was a Protestant place of worship. After 1945, it was forcibly expropriated by the Polish administrative authority in favor of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland and 'reconsecrated' by the Polish Catholic clergy.
