The purpose of the article is to present the history of the “wandering church” in Mętków, which shows on a microscale the strength of colloquial religiosity and religious culture in one of the small local communities in Poland. The biography of Pope John Paul II entered the history of this church, which is why it has the status of a church-relic for the faithful people, which is another interesting interpretative context.

The article opens a series of publications on the existence of sacrum in remote places, small, peripheral, less known sanctuaries against the backdrop of religious landscapes. The first of the sanctuary series is Mętków, whose history is presented by Władysław Zarębczan. However, I add anthropological commentary to this story, using categories: religious culture, etiological legend, sanctuary, relics.

Thu article is an elaboration about the three churches in Niegowić erected in the 15th, 18th and 20th centuries; the buildings inherited the invocation to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary one after the other. The second aspect of the article is the discussion of the changes in the restorative treatment of the historic wooden church in Niegowić. The parish in Niegowić has a medieval register. The paintings are the only objects that survived fr< )m the first wooden building; the second one, which was als< » wc >< iden, was made of mahogany wood and was erected in 1771 in the saine place as the first one. The wooden church with three aisles had a hall-type spatial arrangement, the inside was filled with valuable Late Baroque altars, equipment, sculptu res and paintings, of which only some survived. The growing parish made the construction of the new temple necessary. Efforts for the erection of a masonry building were made in 1914, while planning and realization took as many as 45 years, which was due to some controversies in the historic object restorers and conservators environment. Furthermore, restorers and conservators made protests related with the intention of removing the wooden building. In 1949-1959 a new masonry temple was erected next to the wooden one, and in 1972 a decision was made to move the historic church that the parishioners did not want. In the article’s summary the author pointed out the disadvantages of moving the old Niegowić church, while attempting to compare the discussed case with the situation and capabilities of moving wooden churches in Lesser Poland to other parishes or to open-air museums.
