Величний костел Різдва Пресвятої Діви Марії закладений у 1608 році коштом графа Адама Олізара, відбудований в камені в 1779 році Юзефом Олізаром.

В архітектурі бароко використано стиль Людовіка XIV. Вівтар прикрашала картина польського художника Франциска Смуглевича "Ісус на хресті". У бічній каплиці знаходився сімейний склеп Олізарів.

За радянських часів храм використовувався як зерносховище, а потім як приміщення кінотеатру.

В 1991 році будівлю костелу Різдва Пресвятої Діви Марії було повернуто католицькій громаді міста. В 2008 році проведено повну реставрацію. Інтер'єри прикрашені роботами польського майстра різьблення по дереву Фурдини.

Перед костелом встановлено пам'ятник поетові та громадському діячеві Густаву Олізару.
