Chapel (filial church) in Leszczatów - Roman Catholic public chapel (sometimes referred to as a filial church), at least from the first half of the 18th century until 1945 belonging to the parish of St. Michael the Archangel in Tartaków. Built between 1937 and 1938, it is now in a state of disrepair.

History
. The village of Leshchatov has been part of the Tartakov parish since at least 1726, and certainly since 1732 when it is mentioned in documents. However, it was inhabited mostly by Ruthenians, and a few Roman Catholics commuted to Tartakov. The religious situation of the village changed in the interwar period and there was a need to build a Roman Catholic chapel. Rev. Stefan Wrzołek, the Lviv parish priest, had started making efforts at the Lviv curia in May 1937, the land for the chapel had been donated to the parish by an unnamed Jew, the owner of a farm, and the District Committee for the Construction of Churches and People's Houses in Sokal had donated a wagon of lime, 60,000 bricks and sheet metal for the roofing. A conditional building permit was issued by the Lviv curia on 21 August 1837. It was reported in the local press, and the building was being erected at a rapid pace, and by mid-November 1937 it was already getting ready to be covered with a roof, although the temple was still "under construction" in March of the following year.

The Leszczatów chapel must have survived the Second World War in relatively good condition, even though in 1943 Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) gangs attacked the church and presbytery, robbed and destroyed the interior, and Father Zygmunt Targosz, who was serving the Leszczatów branch church, was attacked by Ukrainians on his way back from a funeral and "stabbed to death". After 1945 it was closed and used for non-church purposes. It was most likely converted into a warehouse, with the introduction of a secondary division into two storeys in the interior. Subsequently abandoned and devastated, it remains so today. Between 2015 and 2018, the roof collapsed almost entirely.

Architecture
The chapel is situated at a road junction, on a flat site, with a north-facing chancel, of brick, rendered. The body, without a separate chancel, is closed trilaterally, with rectangular vestry and treasury rooms added to the sloping walls. The body is two-bay with a bell-tower built into the first bay and serving as the choir. There are no vertical divisions in the interior, the horizontal divisions are carried out by a segmental cornice. The nave is covered with a wooden pseudo-vaulted barrel vault with lunettes, the apse is trilateral.

The façade is simple, with a half-depth recessed tower on the axis. Doorway in a deep, plain glyph, with a large rectangular window at the bottom of the tower, above. Facade capped by a canopy, above, triangular gables connecting the tower to the face. One narrow window each in the upper tiers of the tower. Side elevations on a small plinth, without architectural divisions, rendered. Gabled, tin roof, broken roof over the body closure, tent roof over the sacristy and treasury. The tower is topped with an openwork latticework with a cross.

Artistic issues
. The public chapel in Leszczatów is an interesting combination of a typical modern chapel form with a modernist tower added to the façade. The main features of the chapel are the annexes added diagonally to the chancel, forming a star-shaped arrangement. Also of interest is the tower, which was given a restrained geometric form, varied by wide openings in the lower storey and typical narrow windows above. The whole was crowned by an openwork lantern formed from a string of modernised arcades. The chapel in Leszczatow is a relatively late example of a trend of architecture combining traditionalism with modernity, whose main representative in the eastern areas of the former Commonwealth was the architect Wawrzyniec Dayczak. Unfortunately, based only on the currently known shape of the chapel and enigmatic press references, no attempt can be made to link the design of the chapel to any architect. The building looked elegant and the use of a dominant tower gave it monumentalism. Unsurprisingly, it was referred to as a 'church' in the press of the period, and the lumber parish priest himself wrote of a 'church' in his application to the curia, even though formally the building had the status of a public chapel.
