Gniewoszów burial chapel

The chapel is located on an east-west axis, built on a rectangular plan with a semicircular closed chancel (approx. 20 m2). A brick building, plastered on both sides, on a plinth, covered with a gable roof covered with tinned sheet metal, with a conical roof over the presbytery. The elevations are surrounded by a profiled cornice interrupted above the portal in the single-axis façade with a triangular gable in sections, truncated at the top and surmounted by a cross. The portal is flanked by Ionic pilasters supporting a cornice with an overhanging triangular pediment. In its field depicted in profile and in bust is a bas-relief Christ wearing a crown of thorns and carrying a cross, framed by the letters A and Ω. The portal is flanked by rectangular niches closed with semicircles, originally with figures in them. Above the entrance opening in the frame an engraved inscription (1). Above it a panel with an uplift, in it a shield of arms with h. Rawicz. At the height of the lower edge of the panel, inscribed plaques (2). Side elevations with semicircularly closed window openings and with secondary woodwork. Pilasters on the corners. At the rear on the axis a circular window opening. The façade is preceded by a brick crypt with a roof forming a kind of terrace, accessed by five steps on the sides, enclosing the entrance opening to the crypt. Above it is a closed semicircular base, in which originally a cross was placed, now partially lost. Inside the chapel is an architectural altar.
