The chapel from 1672 in Potępa is one of the three 17th-century free-standing chapels of the Tomb of Christ preserved in Silesia, erected in the style of the temple in Jerusalem. Until the present day, it has been preserved in an almost unchanged shape. This small temple was founded (in the second half of the 17th century) by the lord of the castle in Tworóg, Count Jerzy Leonard Colonna; it was to serve steelworkers and all inhabitants of the village, lost in vast forests. Attention is drawn to the unusual division of the interior and the altar with the figure of Christ in the tomb.
The model for the chapel in Potępa was a similar building in Głogówek, obviously referring to the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. The chapel was built by Marcin Grochowski, a master from Tworoga. The exact description of its appearance at the end of the 18th century was left by Father Walenty Maciej Hoscheck, in the years 1785-1802 the parish priest of the Koty parish based in Tworóg: “This chapel is divided into two parts. The front part, from the door, is intended for the people participating in the mass. The inner part, accessed through a very low passage, is intended for the celebrating priest and the altar boy himself. There is also a small altar with a wooden sculpture depicting the Savior resting in the tomb. Above the altar, there is a quite beautiful image of the Lord's Resurrection, which, however, due to the old age and humidity of the place, is heavily damaged and has holes. Here, where the Mass is celebrated, there is no window, but in the first room there are three small windows, different. There is a small bell in the turret that sounds before the Mass. and daily by the Angelus. " In the 21st century, the chapel was completely renovated and is now an ornament to the central square in Potępa. The building is small, built on a rectangular plan, with a rounded chancel. The doors, windows and recesses in the presbytery have ogival finish. Wooden columns at the chapel wall are an external decoration. The roof was covered with shingles, as was the lantern with a spherical cupola. The interior is two-part. A baroque altar with the tomb of Christ is placed on the right wall of the chancel. There is also a painting of St. Medard, co-patron of the chapel.
