Abstract

Architectural and sculptural furnishings of the church, including the statue of St. Paul, were created after 1765, most probably in the workshop of the Kornecki family of Gdów. Saint Paul was originally called Saul and had been a zealous persecutor of Christians until his conversion. He took the name Paul and began his apostolic activity. He suffered a martyr's death by decapitation with a sword. His attributes are: a book and a sword.
