Ivashkovytsia. St. Michael’s church, 1658

Ivashkovytsia. St. Michael’s church, 1658

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.
