Trocany
The Tserkva of Saint Luke from 15th - beginning of 16th
century. It is the oldest example of three-part wooden Tserkva of the eastern
ritual. It is located in the middle of the village among dwellings and
buildings. The three-part log building made of yew consists of an altar part, a
nave and under tower space. The shingle roof covering the nave is of the
pyramidal shape with a conical end reminding of small roofs of earlier dwelling
buildings' chimneys.
The iconostasis is from 17th century. Some icons are younger. Alas, the unique
collection of ancient woodcuts that were a part of temple's interior was not
saved.
