VILKHOVYTSIA

Vilkhovytsia. St. Demetrius church, 17th century

 

The wooden church, consructed in the neighbouring village of Bystrytsia, was transferred to Vilkhovytsia in 1910 and reconstructed. Oak timbers were used to build logworks. The roof is doubly sloped with edges over the pentahedral altar part. Wide door posts decorated in a refined manner with geometrical motifs deserve special attention. Of interest is the carved passage from narthex to nave. The old iconostasis with icons of 17th century was taken apart in 1990.
