The current appearance of the church comes from the 18th century and represents a late Baroque style. The church is situated in the place of the first church in Prudnik, built in 1279). Bricked, tripartite church with a large gallery inside, connected with chorus and a tower. Very interesting is also an altar with two cherubs and the carving of the Christ. On the rear wall of the presbytery, a baroque picture of “Nanebevzetí Panny Marie” is up. The sculptures of the church fathers are set around the altar: Sv. Augustyn, Sv. Rehor Veliky, Sv. Jeronym and Sv. Ambroz. The altar of Mary Virgin is very interesting in the church as well as the pulpit and the standing figure of Jan of Nepomuk.
