The Roman Catholic Church belongs to the Felician sisters (the monastic community of St. Felix of Cantalice, part of the third order of St. Francis of Assisi). The church was built in 1882-1884 according to the project of architect Felix Ksizharsky. Intended for Felician women who left the territory of the Kingdom of Poland of the Russian Empire after the suppression of the January uprising in 1863-1864. Nearby, in a house in the garden, there was a student kitchen led by nuns. Sister Salome. The church is built in neo-Romanesque style, with a pseudo-basilica. Its tower is decorated with a golden crown, modeled on St. Mary's Church. In the church itself is the tomb of Blessed Mother Angela, founder of the Order of Felician.
