The history of our parish is best illustrated in a book, excerpts of which are posted below. We also invite you to familiarize yourself with historical photos of the Parish of St. James.
The history of the parish is a part of the history of the diocese.
When these events are as noble as the 800th anniversary of the parish of St. James the Elder the Apostle, there is joy in discovering every detail.and all social and religious connections is a unique adventure.The Church of St. James the Apostle in Człuchów is not a deux ex machina, but it has its own
noteworthy prehistory.
besides, the history of the church, above all, of the parish,
it is the history of people's achievements, their achievements,
their multiple presence. There are architects, builders, artists, painters and sculptors, above all.
it's all about the pastors and the parishioners who cooperate with them day after day and age after century.
In the history of the church, we can best see how the transience of man finds a happy antithesis in the indestructibility of God, for whom he builds beautiful buildings and feels in them as at home, as if under one roof in the highest.
