An Orthodox church built in the early 1890s in Sosnowica, then part of the Kingdom of Poland within the Russian Empire; the monument register dates it to 1893. According to Polish Wikipedia it was designed in the Russo-Byzantine style by the architect Viktor Sychugov, and the earlier church was moved to the cemetery. It was a parish church in 1894–1946 and later housed a warehouse; after 1989 it was returned to worship as a filial church, with the liturgy celebrated once a year on the patronal feast.

Православная церковь построена в начале 1890-х годов в Сосновице, входившей тогда в Царство Польское в составе Российской империи; реестр памятников датирует её 1893 годом. По данным польской Википедии, проект в русско-византийском стиле выполнил архитектор Виктор Сычугов, а прежний храм перенесли на кладбище. Церковь была приходской в 1894–1946 годах, позднее в здании размещался склад; после 1989 года она возвращена к богослужению как приписная, литургия совершается раз в год, в престольный праздник.
