First written mentions on St. Wojciech church come from 1213. At first, it was a perish, but in 1406 archbishop of Gniezno, Mikolaj Traba, cancelled this function of church. From that time it was a subsidiary church. Building, which exists nowadays at Zawodzie, was built in 1798 by carpenter Jan Kejner. The initiator of building this church at the place of old one was Sebastian Zielinski. It was made of wood and timbered with soiled pine plank. It has a rectangular nave and lower and narrow chancel with vestry. It has a tiled ridge roof and a pinnacle for ave-bell, built in 1894. It was surrounded with elbs, which were later replaced with limes, that grow there by now. Inside church stands a figure of St. Wojciech in a pontifical outfit. The picture of Our Lady of the Snows is hanged at the main altar.
