The Parish Church of the Holy Trinity is part of the town’s history; at the same time, cycling routes run through Machowa as part of the Pilzno municipality network. A nature and forest loop and a hiking trail in the Pilzno area offer further options to help you plan your activities. This lets you shape your stay around whether you are looking for a cultural discovery or time on a longer route.

The Parish Church of the Holy Trinity

The parish church in Machowa is listed in the heritage register and recorded in the monument inventory. Its history is associated with two specific names and a date: Father W. Jakubowski consecrated the church on 27 July 1779. It was founded by Maciej Niemyski, the owner of the town at the time. These details make the church a distinctive historical landmark, setting it apart from the route options around Machowa.

For visitors interested in local history and church architecture, the church is a reason in its own right to include Machowa in their travel plans. Its historical role and recorded consecration are at the heart of this visit. Together with the trails, it offers a choice of different interests: you can explore the town’s cultural side or plan your outings around cycling and hiking routes.
