Church of St. Saint Jan Nepomucen in Zwierzyniec, is colloquially called the church on the water or on the island, due to its characteristic location by the pond. Built in the 17th century as a theater commissioned by Marysieńka, the future wife of Jan Zamoyski, it was transformed into a church about a hundred years later.

The Church of St. John of Nepomuk in Zwierzyniec is a charming Baroque church built on an island in 1741–1747 as a family chapel for the Zamoyski family. The characteristic bridge leading to the church and the picturesque location make this place a unique point on the map of Roztocze. The interior is decorated with polychrome by Łukasz Smuglewicz and paintings in the side chapels, including a painting of the coronation of the Virgin Mary attributed to him. The building is easily accessible by bike – it is worth stopping for a moment and looking inside.
