The church was built around 1000 and was one of the numerous sacred buildings on the Wawel. The building was a rotunda with two apses . Currently, the kitchens of the Royal Castle are located on the territory of the church. It is not known to whom the church was dedicated. In the church there is a burial place of an unidentifiable woman from the 11th or 12th century.
