The church was erected in the years 1608–1609 on the site of a destroyed wooden chapel of St. Stanislaus (16th–17th c.). It was designed by Piotr Durie, a Lublin architect of Italian origin, and founded by Gertruda Firlej nėe Opalińska, wife of the Crown treasurer Jan Firlej. The founding of the church is commemorated with a Latin inscription on the plaque displayed on the Renaissance southern portico. Despite being damaged by several fires, the church has preserved its original look. The gable of the church has a Lublin Renaissance division into pilasters and cornices. Inside there is a stucco decoration in the shape of an incomplete star. The church complex includes a 17th-century bell tower and a columned chapel built during the construction of the church. On the pediment of the chapel there is the Firlejs’ coat of arms – the Lewart, and initials “PD” associated with Piotr Durie.
