The first wooden church in Bartošovice existed before 1548. A brick church was built in 1673. The current form of the sanctuary dates from 1731-46. The tower was damaged by lightning in 1793, during the repair it was lowered and given a baroque shaft. At the beginning of the 20th century repaired after a fire caused by another lightning strike, the onion-shaped roofs of the towers were replaced by cone-shaped ones. The altarpiece of the patroness of the church is probably the work of one of Peter Brandl's disciples.
