Irshava

In 1930s due to the efforts of priest Yevhen Uyheli a construction of a new big (total area — 492 sq.m) brick church started. The project was made by Uzhhorod architect Emiliyan Egreshi. Iconostasis and altar were carved by Ivan Pavlyshynets, the icons were painetd by well-known Transcarpathian painter Yosyp Bokshay.

It is one of the few small wooden churches that have come down to us. It is dated after the inscription on the door-post. The pentahedral altar section is made of oak, two other sections are made of larch. Double-sloped roof covers all the sections. A low tower with machicolation is crowned with spire. To enlarge the inner space an extra room was attached to the western section. A bell-tower near the church is typical for many mountain villages — it is two-tiered timber framing construction with wide opasannia.
