You have to admit that they are impressive especially viewed from the beach.
24.05.2012I have very fond memories of Trzęsacz. I recommend the multimedia museum on the 51st meridian where they tell a beautiful legend about the ruins of the church.
30.03.2010The ruins of the church in Trzęsacz are one of the most fascinating places on the Polish Coast. In the small village, located on the 15th meridian, stands the last wall of the church - theA monument on a European scale. This brick Gothic church was erected on the highest hill in the area at a distance of about 1,800 meters from the sea shore. Over the centuries, the Baltic Sea has moved closer to the temple. In 1750 the cliff was 50 m away, and in 1850 it was only 5 m away. In 1874 the church was closed. Disaster struck in 1901. The entire northern wall collapsed into the sea. In 1917, the waves took away the apse, and from then on, every dozen years the sea took away another section of the walls. Today only the southern wall remains on the cliff. According to the oldest legends, from the chronicle of Pastor Gardes - 1765, the old church in Trzęsacz was the third Christian church in Pomerania. It is unlikely that anything from the first church survives today. It was probably enlarged over the centuries. This is indicated by the different shapes and sizes of bricks (according to the early 20th century - now no longer visible) as well as different building styles. The chancel was Gothic, the remaining space Romanesque.
