Костел Св. Йосипа побудований у Гнівані в 1906 році коштом поміщиків Яна Барановського, Кароліни Ярошинської та інших парафіян-католиків.

Храм виконаний у неоготичному стилі. Всередині його прикрашають вирізьблені з дерева біблійні сцени. Вітражні вікна та люстри у вигляді великих свічників створюють атмосферу затишку та спокою. Біля вівтаря з правого боку стоїть скульптура Святого Йосипа з Немовлям, з лівого боку – ікона Богородиці. У глибині споруди розташований вівтар із розп'яттям Ісуса.

На центральному дворі споруджено грот Діви Марії.

За радянських часів храм використовувався як виробниче приміщення. У 1992 році костел Святого Йосипа було повернуто католицькій парафії Гнівані, проведено реставрацію.
