St. John Nepomucene Church, Zwierzyniec, Poland

Commonly called the “Church on the Water,” was built between 1741 and 1747 on one of the islands of the Church Pond, formed by Tatar and Turkish prisoners of war. The initiative to build the church came from Tomasz Antoni Zamoyski, the seventh Zamoyski ordynat, and his wife Teresa Michowska, who founded the church as a votive offering in gratitude for the ordynat’s recovery and the birth of their long-awaited son, Klemens. The church also carries symbolic significance, referencing the martyrdom of St. John Nepomucene, who was drowned by order of the King of Bohemia, Wenceslaus IV, for not revealing the secret of confession.

Originally, a water theater or pavilion stood on the island, later replaced by a Baroque-style chapel. The design is attributed to architect Andrzej Bem, and the construction was overseen by master builder Jan Columbani.

The church is connected to the mainland by a wooden bridge and still functions as a place of worship and an important tourist attraction in the Roztocze region, drawing numerous pilgrims and tourists. The church was once a chapel for the Zamoyski estate, with a sacristy and school added later, reflecting its intensive use as early as the 18th century. Every year, a church festival in honor of St. John Nepomucene takes place here, featuring a spectacular boat procession on the water.
