Roman Catholic Church of Saint Nicholas in Kraczkowa

The present temple was constructed between 1911-1913, largely due to the financial and labor efforts of the faithful from Kraczkowa and its vicinity. It is the third church built on this site, the first one was erected in the second half of the 14th century following the village's foundation based on German law. The consecration took place in 1939. The church's architecture is eclectic, blending Gothic and Renaissance features with Baroque elements. The structure's solidity is noticeable, as is the intent to give it a soaring appearance with two slender turrets with sharp helmets and externally built arcades above the side entrances on the upper floor. Inside, there is a Gothic altarpiece with figurative representations and a sculpture of St. Nicholas in the central box, and scenes from Christ's life on its wings. The altar is crowned with rich woodwork decorations, including delicate pinnacles.
