The Gothic stone church, built-in 1880 and consecrated in 1891 with the support of the Marienhausen countess Lippe Lipsky, is called “Gothic rose”.

Bricks for the construction of the church were made right here in the Brontu village of the Medneva parish. The church has two 46 m tall towers. In the garden of the church is the tomb of bishop Kazimirs Dulbinskis. On the Southside of the church’s garden is located the family crypt of Lippe Lipsky’s. Inside the grand building, there are 3 oak altars, 13 stained glass windows, and installed organs. It is possible to play the organ agreeing upon in advance.
