    In 1082, Judith, the wife of Władysław Herman, donates Chropy, known as the Pabianice state, or Pabianice, to the Kraków chapter. The erection of the Pabianice parish under the invocation of St. Matthew takes place in 1398. Unfortunately, in a great fire in the city in 1531, the first church, which had hosted King Władysław Jagiełło twice (1432 and 1441) and Casimir IV Jagiellon (1463), burns to the ground.

    On April 5, 1583, Canon Paweł Dębski concludes a contract with Ambrose the Italian from Płock to build a new church. In the same year, Paweł Dębski lays the cornerstone. The church under the invocation of St. Matthew is built in the years 1538-1588 on the model of the Płock church, according to the plan of Ambrose the Italian. It is a three-nave building in the shape of a cross, unique in sacral art, built simultaneously in three styles: Gothic, Romanesque and Renaissance.

    On the northern external wall there is a bricked-up portal from 1585 with the name of one of the Kraków masons.

    On November 15, 1588, the church was consecrated by Bishop Paweł Dębski, suffragan of Kraków. In 1613, an artistic tombstone of Anna Żułowska was made - from red marble, currently located on the right side of the transverse nave.
