Parish Church of Holy Trinity in Kołbaskowo

Parish Church of Holy Trinity in Kołbaskowo is on the route from Szczecin towards Rosówek. Driving along national road no. 13, at the intersection behind the Commune Office, turn into the street, which is also the road leading to Moczyły. The church is situated next to the public transport stop for buses no. 70 and 81 running to the center of Szczecin. There is free parking in front of the main entrance to the temple grounds. The church is surrounded by a high stone and brick wall, which houses the entrance gate. Behind the wall, on the left, there is a large mission cross, and on the right, there is a church chapel - a small stone grotto, in which a statue of the Virgin Mary is hidden.

The church of the call of the Holy Trinity in Kołbaskowo belongs to the deanery of Szczecin-Pomorzany, in the archdiocese of Szczecin-Kamień. Medieval Kołbaskowo, located today on the Polish-German border, has retained the character of an oval-type Slavic village with a church in the middle. The origin of the settlement is confirmed by a document in which prince Barnim I in 1243 granted the surrounding lands as an endowment to the Cistercian monastery from Szczecin. In 1286, the monastery became the property of the village, and most likely it was then that the construction of the first House of God began. Sources show that in 1304 the Szczecin Cistercians took patronage over it. The late Romanesque temple was a rectangular room and originally did not have a tower. The one, in a half-timbered structure, was added only during the modernization in the 18th century. In 1950, the church was reconsecrated, and on June 1, 1951, the Holy Trinity parish was established there.

The rather narrow interior is covered with a wooden beam ceiling. The chancel is slightly raised upwards and houses a baroque altar from the 18th century. Moreover, the church has a wooden Gothic gallery and two bells from 1600 and 1705.
