Trybsz
The Cistercians from Mogiła have run Trybsz since 1957. They took over a small mountain parish as a recreation place for their convent.
Thanks to the concern of the village inhabitants a wooden church of St. Elżbieta Węgierska from 1557 has survived together with encircling it cemetery. Its main relic is a wall polychromy which decorates the walls, ceiling, and choir's balustrade.
New brick stone church was consecrated in 1905. There are many elements from the old wooden church: a painting of St. Elżbieta, two wings with images of the Evangelists, Christ and Our Lady of Sorrows from the 16th century which once constituted a triptych in the high altar, apart from that, a baroque Baptismal font, liturgical objects such as vestments and monstrances, and baroque altars with sculptures of saints and spiral columns.
