Strzelno - Rotunda św. Prokopa
In the 12th century the local voivode endowed the Church of St. Cross here. At the end of the 12th century another church, the Rotunda of St. Prokop, was built.
Premonstratensian nuns had a monastery here from 1148 to 1838. The Holy Trinity Church, consecrated in 1216, was also built during this period.
Strzelno fell to Prussia in 1772. After the end of the First World War Strzelno was ceded to the Second Polish Republic. In 1939 the region was occupied by the German Wehrmacht; subsequently Strelno was reincorporated into the German Reich. In the spring of 1945 it rejoined Poland.

The "Rotunda of St. Prokop" was probably completed mid 13th century, like the neighboring church of the Premonstratensian nuns.
There are three "addons": a square chancel on the eastern side, two small apses to the west, and a tall tower. with a prominent escarpment on the west side and a gallery on the first floor.
During the reconstruction at the end of the 15th century, the upper part of the tower was demolished and bricked again in brick.
Later, the rotunda was incorporated into the buildings of the convent as a monastery gate. In 1779 the rotunda was re-consecrated and dedicated to St. Procopius . In 1812 the church was profaned by Napoleon's soldiers and used for economic purposes.
The rotunda got renovated and reconstructed in the 1890s and again in the 1920s. During WW II, the rotunda was turned into a warehouse. In 1945, the Germans planted explosives in the rotunda. The explosion and fire destroyed the upper parts of the tower and all interior fittings, while the walls survived. Conservation works were carried out in the years 1948–1952, restoring the original Romanesque character of the church.
