Church of Saint Nicholas the Bishop


church 1753 Tabaszowa

Address
Tabaszowa, 72

Location
woj. małopolskie, pow. nowosądecki, gm. Łososina Dolna

The church is very picturesquely set among the hills of the Beskid Wyspowy mountains over the bend of Lake Rożnów.

The bishop consecrating the temple was to say, “God did very well creating this part of the world”. 

History

The church was erected in 1753 in nearby Tęgoborze; it was refurbished in 1819 and expanded in 1891 (larger turret). After a new parish temple was built,  dedicated to the Most Precious Blood of Jesus, St Nicholas became a filial church, but it was in fact no longer used. It was moved to its present location in the years 1980-1982. In the old site, after the construction of a dam in the Dunajec River, it was at risk of flooding and was actually often flooded. In 1989 it became a parish church of Tabaszowa. In 2008 its polychrome was renovated.

Description

It has a wooden log structure with vertically boarded walls. A single-nave church with a narrower, rectangular chancel, and two outbuildings on the sides. The sacristy is made of brick. A double-pitched roof with one ridge, one of its panes covering the old sacristy; a shed roof over the nave. The roof is covered with sheet metal. The ridge supports a Baroque, polygonal ave bell turret. Another turret above the front part covered with a spherical cupola. The interior has flat ceilings. The straight wall closing the chancel features a painting of a Crucifixion group enclosed in a wooden frame from the first half of the 19th century. The walls of the temple are decorated with ornamental and figural polychrome from 1895 by Adolf Gucwa. The 18th century main altar exhibits a Baroque painting of the Mother of God with Child from the same period and an image of St Nicholas. The side altars were made in the same century: the Heart of Jesus and St Anthony on the right, and Pensive Christ and Our Lady of the Rosary on the left. The images placed inside were made in the 19th century. The 1850 pipe organ comes from a workshop in Stary Sącz. Before the entrance to the vestibule, there is a stone baptismal font with a bas-relief depicting the Baptism in Jordan in the folk baroque style (18th century). Next to it, there is a free-standing, triangular-topped belfry from before 1841.

The church can be visited after services. Weekdays 6:30 p.m. (5:00 p.m.). Sundays and holidays 7:00 a.m., 10:30 a.m., 4:00 p.m. Abolished feasts: 7:00 a.m., 5:00 p.m.
