Nizny Komarnik
The Tserkva of the Mother of God built in 1938 in accordance
with a projekt of the outstanding Ukrainian architect and explorer V. Sicinsky
(1894-1962). The "bojko" type of temples represent an ideal harmony and
conformity of independent parts of the building. The perfect application of
static law, the logical articulation of the whole and the parts resulted in its
attractive appearance. It is one nave rustic building built on a higher retain
wall. An orthogonal dome is over the nave. In front of the entrance is a
porticos with carved pillars.
Iconostas is form the beginning of the 18th century and comes from Trebisov.
Because it was not built for this building, apostles and prophets were placed in
the dome.
