History
Probably the first wooden church was built in the place of the present one in the 12th century. More detailed information can be found in the documents from 1370, from which we learn that it was dedicated to St. Martin and St. Peter in Oki. Its founders were most likely the Dresseds, who inherited Konarzewko at that time. The place of the wooden church was replaced at the turn of the 16th / 17th century by a brick church erected by the Ostaszewski family. It was dedicated to St. Marcin in 1636.
According to the decree of October 25, 1786, the clerical authority connected the Konarzewo parish with the parish in After that - it was then decided that the Konarzewska church would be the parish church. Therefore, in 1803, the church in Dopiewski was pulled down.
