Peter and Paul Church

Temple , Architecture

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Roman Catholic community of the village of Poliany was small and belonged to the parish in Pomoriany. However, the owners of the village Frantsishek Hursky and Valerian Valsky decided to build a chapel here.

Thus, in 1904, the Peter and Paul Church was built according to the project of the famous architect Yulian Zakharevych in a transitional style from historicism to modernism. In 1924, a separate Roman Catholic parish was formed in the village of Poliany, which remained there until 1944, when the priest left the village.

After the Second World War, the Soviet government used the church as a warehouse, dividing the premises into two floors. Today, the church remains inactive and is in a deplorable state. Nearby is an old Polish cemetery.
