The Benedictines left Sochaczew in the second half of the 13th century under a privilege granted by Bolesław, Duke of Mazovia, and the parish church of St. Lawrence, deacon and martyr, was erected in place of the Church of the Holy Trinity. The church was consecrated in 1257 by Andrzej Ciołek, Bishop of Płock. However, earlier, in 1244, Siemowit I, Duke of Mazovia, brought the Dominican Order to Sochaczew and founded a monastery and church dedicated to St. Nicholas the Bishop. This church was built on the banks of the Bzura River, which flows through the town. The wooden parish church stood on the slope until the 17th century.

This church was built on the banks of the Bzura River, which flows through the town. The wooden parish church stood on a slope until the 17th century. It was vaulted in front of the high altar, and the nave was covered with planks. Initially, it was roofed with tiles, and later with shingles. The Sochaczew rectory lacks a foundation erection, and episcopal visits attest to its loss in fires that ravaged the city and its churches. The parish church had St. Lawrence as its patron saint.
