On the beginnings of the church and parish in Tuligłowy. A contribution to the history of the Latin Church organisational structures in the diocese of Przemyśl

Summary/Abstract: The state of knowledge about the beginnings and development of the organisation of the Catholic Church in the diocese of Przemyśl remains unsatisfactory, in spite of relatively rich literature. Of 163 parishes on that area, only less than twenty have relatively exhaustive monographs. A large majority of parish churches do not have foundational or erectional do­cuments, while those existing are often false, so the whole picture of the development of the parochial network remains unclear. One example of such problems is the history of the church in Tuligłowy, supposed to be one of the oldest churches in the diocese. It is said to have been founded at the end of the 14th century and conveyed to the Order of the Holy Sepulchre from Miechów in mid-15th century. The analysis of surviving source records shows a different picture.The church was founded in the second half of the 15th century on the area belonging to the parish in Rudołowice and soon afterwards a separate parish was created near it. After about ten years the Order of the Holy Sepulchre took it over and subordinated it to the parish priests from Rudołowice, even though the parish in Tuligłowy retained its integrity. During the Reformation, in mid16th century, the church was turned into a Protestant chapel and only at the very end of the same century the owner of Tuligłowy rebuilt it and received the right of patronage over it. Then the Order of the Holy Sepulchre took it over once again. The history of the church in Tuligłowy is an example of the activities of that Order in the Przemyśl land, where they used falsified documents on a large scale in order to expand their possessions.
