The church was built in the second half of the 17th century. The date of construction is often given as 1700. The tower was added in 1743. This date was found on one of the beams of the structure. However, it may only refer to the renovation of the older tower. It is the oldest probably dated tower of the Lemko church. After Operation Vistula in 1947, the temple began to be used as a Roman Catholic church, belonging to the parish in Uście Gorlickie. Currently, it is shared between Roman Catholics and Greek Catholics.

The first Orthodox church in Uście Gorlickie was established around 1539 as the seat of the Orthodox parish. In 1691, the parish accepted the Union of Brest and the new temple, built in 1786, was already a Greek Catholic church. In 1938, a polychrome was painted in the wooden building. After Operation Vistula, the church was taken over by a Roman Catholic parish, but after 1956, services in the Byzantine-Ukrainian rite were occasionally held there, organized by priest Wasyl Hrynyk. Since 1997, the sole owner of the church is the Greek Catholic parish.
