JIt is apart from Goleszow, the oldest village in Goleszow commune and one of the oldest in Teschen Silesia ducal village, existing already in 1223. In 15th century parish was here already.

     A very precious historic building in Puncow is the Roman Catholic Saint George's church . It was built in 1518. It is the oldest brick church building in the village and in the Teschen district. It was built in the late-Gothic style. In 1902 – 1905 the church was expanded. In place of the old wooden tower, the new – brick one was built, fit into the building structure. The bell have been placed in tower in 1726. Presbytery is the oldest part of the church, which passes from the northern side to the vestry. Old passion altar is located inside the church and it comes from the old wooden church building, existing here before the brick church erection. The church nave is based on the square plan with octagonal central pillar supporting the three folded vaults (so-called palm or star (groin) vaulting). It is one of this kind of example of nave solution in Cieszyn Silesia. The narrower presbytery divided by lancet rainbow, remained its net (lierne) vault. There are also few pretty Gothic portals located inside.
