St. Catherine's Church in Ulina Wielka

St. Catherine's Church in Ulina Wielka, built in 1655 on the site of an earlier temple, is a wooden structure of historical and architectural significance. In 1708, the church was renovated by Krzysztof of Dobień, and its consecration took place in 1791 by Bishop Franciszek Potkański. Located in the Małopolskie Voivodeship, Miechów County, the church is listed in the register of immovable monuments and forms part of the Wooden Architecture Trail in the region. Its architectural features include an oriented log structure, with a nave covered by a false cross vault and a narrower rectangular presbytery with a barrel vault. The door and window frames are distinguished by their ogee (donkey-back) shape. The interior is adorned with late Baroque altars from the 17th century, a Gothic sculpture of the Enthroned Madonna and Child from around 1400, and a Mannerist pulpit. Notable artifacts also include a marble baptismal font from the late 17th century and 18th-century epitaphs of the village owners. The church, along with its bell tower and ancient trees, constitutes an important element of the region's cultural heritage.
