History
The first parish church in Wrocank was built before 1487. In the late 60s of the XVIII century, this church was demolished. Only the brick sacristy of the 17th century has survived.
The current parish church of All Saints was built in 1770 by the work of parishioners and rector Tomas Bocharsky. The wooden church is a log house on a stone foundation, the outer walls are lined with tiles. In 1886, the church was expanded by the chapel of St. Rosalia and two porches by Karol Gregor of Jaslo and carpenter Pukhalski.
At that time, the neo-Gothic interior of the temple was decorated with frescoes. The temple was badly damaged during the First and Second World War. In the 60s of the XX century, the building was renovated and partially reconstructed, restoring most of the structural elements of the original building. In 1970, restoration work was completed.
