The present baroque church dates from the 18th century. Over the next decades, it was rebuilt several times. Its furnishings and decorations come mostly from the 19th century. The main altar painting - entitled "Elevation of the Holy Cross" - was created in 1842. The organs come from the 18th century, the crucifix from the 18th-19th century and the baptismal font - with the sculpture of the baptism in Jordan - from the first half of the nineteenth century, the church is single-nave, carcass construction. It is one of nearly 70 wooden churches scattered throughout the Opole region on the Wooden Sacred Building Trail.
On the other hand, Kalwaria Marianska in Radawie is a place of religious worship that was established in the years 1996–2003, at the stop of pilgrimage of the Diocese of Legnica to Jasna Góra. It is surrounded by statues of saints. There are monuments of Our Lady of Salvation, John Paul II, Maximilian Kolbe, Father Pio, John the Baptist, Archangel Michael, Brother Albert and blessed Karolina Kózkówna. Today, it is a place of open-air services with an unusual atmosphere.
Church and calvary in Radawie
The first mentions of the church in Radaw date back to 1500. But in fact the temple was supposed to exist in this place as early as 1305. Today, apart from the church, there is also a Calvary in the town, where masses are celebrated in the open air.

How it working
To listen to the history of monuments as part of the "Discover History" project, you need to follow a few simple steps. Below, we present a short, step-by-step "user manual" to provide a relatively simple way to access the mini-auditions.
You need a smartphone with a camera. The camera lens should be pointed at the information plaque located next to the monument. Below is a view of the plaque itself and its example location next to the Karol Musioł monument in Opole.
After pointing your smartphone's camera at the QR code located on the right side of the plaque, the app's welcome screen will appear, followed by a screen with the name, photo of the monument, and the "START" button.
The "START" button starts the audio recording process.
Your smartphone will prompt you with the next steps after you listen to the story or pause it. Please keep an eye on your smartphone screen!
Other available options: brief information about the monument, author of the text and recording, list of other monuments in the city included in the "Discover History" project, downloadable map of monuments, video, and social media links
Would you like to implement the project in your city as well?

Monuments in cities remind us of the history of places and people, and allude to important events. They are also works of art. Bronze, metal, wood, or concrete transformed into the form of a monumental obelisk attract attention. We enjoy sitting by them, taking photos, and making appointments.
Project partners
Implementing the "Discover history" project in each city requires the involvement of many people: programmers, graphic designers, writers, actors, sound engineers, and coordinators. It is thanks to them that this project came to life.
Our ambition is to continually expand its reach. Therefore, we thank our current partners and invite additional cities, institutions, companies, and individuals to collaborate!
