In 2005 and 2006 the Institute of Archaeology at Lódz University and the Regional Centre for Monuments Study and Documentation in Lódz conducted architectural studies of the titular church in Stronsko (commune of a police), making it possible to identify a number of heretofore unknown elements of the original Romanesque solid of the church, the degree of its preservation, and the interior outfitting. The researchers also defined the chronology of particular phases in the development of the solid. The original Romanesque church was erected as a single-nave stone construction, with the outside face made of burnt brick possessing all the features of material tooled with stonework methods. The distinct elements of the solid composition included an apse, considerably reduced by the presbytery, a nave, and probably a two-tower western massif. The brick conch ceiling of the apse was closed from the side of the presbytery with a double archivolt. The presbytery featured a brick cradle ceiling, and from the nave was closed with a semicircular arcade of the rood beam. The pillars of the arch and the apse were straight and non-molded. The church was probably covered with an open roof truss. An examination of the western scope of the nave, based on archaeological methods, facilitated a recreation of the original plan of the church. The area of the towers was outfitted with a western gallery connected with a staircase in the north-western corner of the nave. The altar table was a brick mensa. The church was entered through a portal, featuring the extant original carved tympanum. The interior of the building was not plastered, and the presbytery was decorated with polychrome. Additional light was provided by six small window openings in the northern and southern walls. A single window was located along the axis of the apse.
