Assumption of Holy Mary Church in Haczów - a Gothic, wooden church located in the village of Haczów from the fifteenth-century, which together with different churches is designated as part of the UNESCO Wooden Churches of Southern Lesser Poland.[1] The church in Haczów is the largest wooden Gothic church in Europe, and simultaneously one of the oldest wooden framework churches in Poland.[2]

History

The wooden church in Haczów was built out of a wooden framework, raised after 1459, and expanded in 1624 (with the building of the 25 metre starling tower, built away from the church, topped out with a cupola, pl:soboty (low wooden arcade around the church supported by pillars), the creation of windows in the nave, and the building of an earth bulwark); between 1784 and 1789 (expansion of the sacristy, building of new soboty). The interior of the church is decorated with a polychrome from 1494 (most likely the oldest polychrome of its type in Europe, representing the oldest collection of representative paintings in Poland), and later expanded in 1864.[3]
