Castle's church of St.Jadwiga - presbytery of a former collegiate church built in XIV century, rebuilt in XVI century as a mausoleum of Piasts' kin of Legnica and Brzeg. After destroying the church and collegiate buildings in 1741, in 1783 there was other rebuilding. During rebuilding of a castle in XX century, the church became a gothic one.
