St. Anne's Church in Krzyżanowice

The Church of Saint Anne is a Roman Catholic parish church located in Tworków, within the Opole diocese. It was built at the end of the 18th century, with construction taking place between 1791 and 1793. The church suffered damage during fighting in 1945 and was subsequently rebuilt between 1947 and 1949. Its architecture represents the late Baroque style. The church is oriented, masonry-built, and constructed of brick, featuring a gable roof and a distinctive bell tower (sygnaturka). It has a short nave, and to the west, it is adjoined by a tall tower with a square base, the upper part of which is polygonal and topped with a pyramidal spire. The decorative entrance portal is noteworthy, featuring the heraldic cartouche of the Lichnowski family above the doors. The interior houses the main altar with a painting of Saint Anne, funded by the local lords of Krzyżanowice, the Lichnowskis. The Church of Saint Anne is not only a place of religious worship but also a valuable part of local history and culture, reflecting the traditions of the region.
