The 1830 bell-tower in Zaborów, next to the church of the Blessed Virgin Mary, originally stood next to a wooden chapel erected in 1814, and later next to a wooden church built in 1835 (dismantled in 1950).
The bell-tower is post construction and set on a stone foundation. It is tetrahedral in shape with perpendicular walls above which a bulbous octagonal cupola rises. The Parish Church in Zaborów was erected in 1949-51 on the site of the wooden church, from which items were transferred, including the cult “Zaborów Madonna with Child”, a bas relief of God the Father, and the figures of St. Peter and St. Paul.
