how to get there

The polychrome decorations date from 1882. In the late 19th/early 20th century additional floor was added to the narthex and the choir gallery was placed there; a stone substructure was made. In the early 1900s a sacristy was built next to the chancel, and in 1924 a porch was added to the narthex. In 1937 the old bell tower was dismantled and replaced with a new brick zvonnitsa-type belfry also used as the gate.
