Summary/Abstract: The largest church of the Kurpie Region: the Collegiate Church of the Holy Trinity in Myszyniec, was initially considered a work of Adolf Schimmelpfennig. However, on the grounds of archival sources it has been ascertained that it was Franciszek Przecławski who was its designer, and that the Church was raised in 1909-1922. Analysing the reasons for Schimmelpfennig's name having been associated with the Myszyniec Collegiate Church, the forms of its free-standing belfry, socalled gate tower, are analysed; the Author concludes that it is Schimmelpfennig who was responsible for the remodelling of the belfry in 1867-1868.
