Kozany
The Tserkva of Lord's Meeting with Simeon built in the 2nd
half of the 18th century. The three-part building consists of the altar room,
the nave and the women part. Because of the outside planking the church evokes
an impression of two-part building but three-part design is emphasized by the
three towers harmoniously compounded into the exuberantly articulated shingle
roof.
The interior is interesting with remains of precious wall paintings with scenes
from the Old and New Testaments from years 1793-1797 as well as with hand-made
wrought window bars of the Gothic style. The iconostasis is from the beginning
of 18th century. A specificity of the iconostasis is that it has got only twoo
doors (czaristic one - in the middle and diaconal one - on the north side). The
most precious icon is Last Judgment from the end of 18th century (canvas).
Visitors are also attracted by a decorative chandelier, wooden cup, candlesticks
and other sacral things.
