The Church of St. Michael the Archangel in Dziećmarów was erected in the 1940s, using structural elements of a Baroque temple that was destroyed by a bomb explosion during World War II. The 18th-century building was founded by the Knights Hospitaller order on the site of an older Hospitaller church, probably from the 14th century. The temple was modernized and expanded with a chapel at the end of the 19th century. In the main altar of the church, a painting depicting the patron of the parish, painted in the second half of the 18th century, has been preserved from the original furnishings. Next to the church, one can see 19th-century tombstones with Gothic inscriptions in Polish and German. The facility is located on the Knights Hospitaller Trail in the Głubczyce Land. Practical information: The church can be visited before or after mass. Free admission. Sightseeing time: 1 hour. Parking spaces along the street.
