Sanctuary of St Adalbert in Bieliny

Situated on the other bank of the San River from the town of Rudnik, Bieliny was to become a stop on St. Adalbert's way to an evangelising mission in Prussia. The church, which protects the relics, was built in the 1860s and is a typical Baroque temple with a massive pediment and semi-columns on the outer facade, slimming the silhouette of the building. The interior is richly covered with figural frescoes and geometric-plant motifs, as well as imitation architectural elements. The presbytery contains a beautiful main altar, black with gilding, similar to the side altars. Inside the church, one can see the stone baptistery and the epitaphs of the donors buried there.
