WINNA-GÓRA
A village located in Środka-Wielkopolska district (powiat) ca. 3 km west of Miłosław.
The local one-nave church was built 1766, founded by Bishop Teodor Czartoryski. It was redeveloped in a neo-baroque spirit in 1912. The rococo main altar dated at the late 18th century contains an Our-Lady-with-the-Infant icon from 2nd half of 16th c., the silver frock dating to mid-18th c. Hanged in the transept are two paintings made in 1810–1818 on order of General Jan-Henryk Dąbrowski.
A hexagonal grave-chapel of General Dąbrowski, designed by Seweryn Mielżyński and built in 1863 thanks to the endeavours of the Poznań Society of Friends of Art and Sciences, adjoins the nave’s western wall. It contains a neo-classicist tombstone, modelled after the Roman sarcophagus of Scipio Africanus. The chapel’s Art-Nouveau polychrome was created in 1918 by Stanisław Smogulecki.
