The Mannerist tomb of Andrzej Zebrzydowski was created by Jan Michałowicz. In 1675 the baroque Zebrzydowski epitaph came out, u. a. for Mikołaj Zebrzydowski . The chapel was rebuilt by Sławomir Odrzywolski in the 18th century and between 1900 and 1901 . The new altar was designed by Pietro Bazzanti in Florence in 1904 .
