LUBLA - Roman Catholic Church of St. Nicolas the Bishop

According to historical sources, the parish in Lubla existed already in the 13th century although some suspect that it may have existed much earlier but no documents have remained to prove it. Even though the exact date when the wooden church was built is not known, we only know that at the turn of the 15th and the 16th century Mikołaj Grot, the abbot of the Cistercians strove for it.

CHURCH

IN LUBLA

Many churches that we are presenting on our website can boast of a history dating back to the Middle Ages, but in the case of Lubla it is a tradition that is making an impression even among the most experienced. The first mention of the village comes from the 12th century, when a small village was given to the Order of Cistercians. The Cistercians kept it until the 18th century, when it was confiscated by the Austrian Emperor Joseph II. The emperor became its owner and in 1808 the estate was sold at an auction. Its post-war fate is incredibly sad and in 1946 the mansion was parcelled out.

According to historical sources, the parish in Lubla existed already in the 13th century although some suspect that it may have existed much earlier but no documents have remained to prove it. Even though the exact date when the wooden church was built is not known, we only know that at the turn of the 15th and the 16th century Mikołaj Grot, the abbot of the Cistercians strove for it. In 1778, the church was renovated and soon afterwards a tower was added on its western side. In the 19th century the landlord of the village made sure its roof would be covered with shingles and the tower’s with metal sheets. The structure was damaged during World War II when its tower and ridge turret were destroyed. Fortunately, in the second half of the 20th century it was renovated and so were the interior and the furnishings. In 1995 the tower chamber and its roof were rebuilt. The 21st century also brought about renovation and conservation works.

The church, which is built on a small hill, is beautifully surrounded by old trees.

Inside, the visitors cannot miss the main altar that comes from late Baroque. It holds a Gothic painting of Misericordia Domini dating from the 15th century. Besides, two more Gothic paintings can be found. The first one represents Our Lady Queen of Angels with the Child and St. Nicolas. The second presents the image of St. Anne with Maria and the Child, together with St. Joachim. The rood beam is decorated with a Baroque cross dating from the 17th century and Rococo candlesticks in the shape of angels. Yet another gem of the church is its pulpit from 1778 and the confessional from the 18th century. One of the most precious elements of the interior decorations is the figure of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception. It was executed in the 18th century and it shows the influence of Italian Baroque. The Gothic bell from the 15th century can still be heard today in the bell tower.

The visitors should pay attention to the southern wall of the bell tower, where you can see the head of Jesus. During World War II, the village was under fire and the church cross was destroyed. Only this head was preserved as it was literally driven into the wooden wall. This is why it was kept in token of this event and as a symbol.
