Church of St. Luke the Evangelist from the 2nd half of the 17th century. Built from the foundation of the castellan of Ląd, Wojciech Skarbek-Malczewski and Jan Daleszyński. Renovated with the expansion of the presbytery in 1731 at the initiative of Stanisław Malczewski. In 1853, a brick chapel of the Transfiguration of the Lord was added from the foundation of Jan Modlibowski. In the years 1929-30, a brick side nave was added. In the years 1965-66, polychrome was made. Restored in 1989.

Construction and equipment. Wooden church, originally a single-nave log construction. Oriented. Smaller presbytery than the nave, closed on three sides with a side sacristy and a brick chapel. Chapel with neo-Gothic features built on a pentagonal plan with a turret for a bell tower. Side brick nave. Tower from the front, of a skeleton construction, two-storey with a narrower upper part with a porch on the ground floor and a clock. Topped with a tin cupola with a spire. Double-ridge roof, covered with sheet metal with a quadrangular turret for a bell. Topped with a tented roof with a lantern and a pennant with the date "1731" and the initials of the founder "WSM". Flat ceiling inside, cruciform in the chapel. Choir supported on two columns with a Baroque organ prospect with 10 voices from the 1st half of the 18th century, rebuilt in 1930 by Władysław Prelate. Straight-line parapet decorated with paintings with 9 images of Saints. Rainbow beam with the Passion Group from around the mid-18th century. 19th century. Late Baroque: main altar and two side altars, pulpit (with sculptures of the four Evangelists and a figure of Saint Stanislaus) and baptismal font (supported by a figure of an angel) from 1737. In the chapel, an altar from 1853 with classicist features. Two late Baroque crucifixes. Sculptures of the apostles by Andrzej Majchrzak. Neo-Gothic rectory from the end of the 19th century.
