St. Bartholomew's Church in Poręba Wielka is a wooden, late Gothic church, whose present form dates from the early 16th century (1502–1506). The church was founded by Count Zygmunt Porębski. Its history includes a period when it served as a Calvinist church from 1720 to 1763. Later, after renovations, the church was rebuilt, and the furnishings (including the altars) were changed to Baroque styles. Renovation and conservation work was carried out in the 21st century.
