A wooden church of 1779 — a model of "Maramureș Gothic" with a 14 m spire.

A two-log-frame, three-part church of oak beams on a stone foundation, built without nails; the date 1779 comes from inscriptions on the doors. The 14 m spire is surrounded by four corner spires — this is the very "Maramureș Gothic" that the scholar Oleksii Petrov called exemplary. In 1828 the walls were painted by the artist I. Kornmayer; the 18th-century iconostasis once held nine icons, most of them lost. A monument of national significance since 2009. It is said that five thousand hen and goose eggs went into the mortar for the building.

On a hill in the centre of the village, Karpatskoi Sichi Street; the spire is visible from afar. Part of the wall painting is damaged by damp.
