Example of a wooden auxiliary building, featuring a structure and shape typical of a bell tower.

History

The bell tower was erected at a wooden parish church in the Zawady commune in the second half of the 18th century. After a new church, of brick, was built in the Zawady commune in 1956, the old church with a bell tower was demolished and relocated to the village of Cibory Kołaczki in the Zawady commune in 1979. In 1980, the building was altered using a new formwork.

Description

The bell tower is situated in the north-western part of the village, in the fenced quadrangular churchyard cemetery, in its north-west corner. It was designed in the Baroque style and built on a square floor plan, with a basement. Its two-part structure is made up of a cuboidal main body and a narrower turret containing bells, topped with a pyramidal hipped roof surmounted by a spire and a cross. The main body is covered with a hip roof.

The tower was built as a wooden post construction on stone foundations. It was covered with vertical board and batten siding. The roof of the main body is covered with shingles, the turret with sheet metal. The ceiling is flat and made of wood. The ground floor rectangular double windows are topped with an overhanging segmental arch. The turret contains rectangular bell openings covered by shutters. The rectangular door opening is filled with a double door.

The structure can be viewed from the outside.
