    Built in the years 1661–1681 on a cross plan with two side naves in the Baroque style according to the design of Isidoro Affait the Elder for the Discalced Carmelites. In the years 1762–1780 the facade was rebuilt according to the design of Efraim Szreger in the Classicist style. This is the first stone facade in the Classicist style in the Republic of Poland.

    Around 1642 Albrycht Wessel, the court standard-bearer and starost of Różan, Makowiecki and Tykocin, decided to build a church for the Discalced Carmelites, who were not in Warsaw at that time. The suburb of Warsaw where the temple was to be built was called Bykowiec and the square belonged to Marcin Krasicki, starost of Bolimów. After Wessel's death, who did not provide adequate funds for the further construction of the church, its construction was carried out thanks to successive "benefactors".
