It is the oldest of the temples preserved in Kujawy, built in the Romanesque style at the turn of the 11th / 12th century. Initially, it served as an episcopal cathedral. When the episcopate was moved to Włocławek, it became a collegiate church at which the Kruwicka chapter exists. In the 1950s and 1970s, re-humanization was carried out to restore the character of the Romanesque temple. The collegiate church in Kruszwica has the character of a three-nave basilica, built of granite and sand blocks, with a pillar system, with a presbytery in the form of an apse, separated from the nave by a transept with eastern apses. The nave corps is finished with a late Gothic brick tower from the 16th century. The temple's building is made of sandstone and granite, while its decorative architectural and sculptural details are made of sandstone and granite. The walls of the collegiate church are covered with carefully refined erotic boulders, the apses of presbytery chapels are made of sandstone blows, while the transept apse of the transept is made of small stones and grooves covered with mortar. Inside the collegiate church there are many important monuments. These include: a Romanesque baptismal font from the 12th century; Romanesque stoup with crosses carved on the periphery; late Gothic sculptures from the 16th century, depicting the scene of the Crucifixion of Christ; sculptures of kneeling angels from the first half of the 18th century, derived from the collegiate baroque altars; a picture of Our Lady of Częstochowa from 1656 painted on wooden boards; picture of saint Of the Cross from the mid-seventeenth century; wooden sculpture of the Risen Christ from the 16th century; wooden crucifix in the folk style of the 19th century; late Gothic tombstone of Zofia Oporowska; baroque confessionals and black benches with gold fittings from the 18th century; two chandeliers from 1643 and 1929; 17th century marble slabs; painting showing the beginnings of Christianity in Kruszwica.
